Flexible seating (i.e. bean bag chairs, yoga balls) and chair bands support students' natural need for movement and comfort while learning in a classroom setting. The transition from hybrid and virtual learning to in-person school, while still during a pandemic, caused increased pressure and apprehension among children. We currently do not have proper seating in the classroom. Children with autism need comfortable school chairs to gain success in educational achievements.
This project will equip my classroom with seating options, fidget materials, and books that will support my students physically, emotionally, and academically. Lastly, the smaller sensory items support students with nerves and anxiety by allowing them to fidget and release energy while they work.
