These flexible seating items will benefit my students tremendously. Often coming from traumatic experiences, my "lion pride" does not have the necessary skills to cope with life and school situations. Students are unable to verbally express their concerns and feelings. They often keep their frustrations bottled up until they explode, whether it be getting into a fight or disrespecting adult staff members. Not having these coping skills affects their academics, behaviors, and overall mental stability. The "mane" reason for this project is to create a safe space for them to learn to cope and succeed with everyday endeavors, giving them the opportunity to return to class & continue on with their day rather than be suspended. Help me help them!
