My Project

Being able to provide these hammock swings will allow students to change their seating while still remaining in the classroom and engaged in learning. This alternative seating option can provide the movement and sensory break some students need without requiring them to leave the room, helping them refocus and return to learning, ready to participate.

Students sometimes need different options to discover how they learn best.

By providing these opportunities, we can help students develop self-awareness, learn effective strategies for regulating themselves, and build skills that can benefit them throughout their education and for a lifetime.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
