Students who needed to move would often resort to behaviors like noisy pencil tapping, foot stomping, or fidgeting that could be distracting to others. Now, with the tools you provided, they have productive and quiet ways to channel that energy. For example, a student can now keep one hand on a Pop It while writing with the other, allowing them to remain engaged in the task without making noise. The chair bands provide a silent outlet for restless feet, and the foot pillows allow for quiet movement.\r\n\r\nThe difference in our classroom environment is remarkable. We are now a much more concentrated class, and I have had to redirect students for being off-task or noisy far less often. This shift has allowed for more time to be spent on academics, and it has created a calmer, more productive learning space for everyone.\r\n\r\nYour donation has not only provided our students with the tools they need to succeed but has also shown them that people they have never met believe in their ability to learn and thrive.
