The month of August is here, which means it’s back to school time. Whether you are a college student with a hectic schedule or a parent of a child with special needs, we offer a range of tools to give a smooth start to the semester.
Make your tablet accessible with a holder
One of the latest innovations in educational technology in recent years is the touch tablet computer. Many students are transitioning from laptop computers to devices like the Apple iPad and Samsung Galaxy, and school curricula are starting to include them in various ways as well. But those with limited arm strength and movement find it difficult to hold a tablet and touch the screen with the other hand. The Tab Grabber Tablet Computer Wheelchair Holder connects to your wheelchair and functions as an extra arm to hold your tablet for you. The arm is flexible and the holder rotates 360 degrees two ways to provide the optimal viewing angle.
Special pens for a smooth writing experience
While technology is advancing rapidly, sometimes we still find ourselves needing to use good old pen and paper. We offer a multitude of writing tools for those dealing with arthritis, hand weakness, and other issues.
The Ergo-Sof PenAgain Pen features a dynamic, comfortable grip designed to reduce the amount of pressure needed to write. Priced reasonably, this pen glides easily across the page and allows the natural weight of the writer's hand to provide sufficient pressure to apply ink to the paper. This ergonomic writing aid features a pocket clip, retractable cap, and a soft rubber coating finish that adds extra comfort and style. The pen includes two additional black refills.
Another writing solution is the The Classic Ring Pen Writing Aid, a pen with an ergonomically designed barrel with a center opening that allows one finger to fit through the ring, providing a natural resting place for the writing finger.
A hands-free solution for paperbacks
While writing papers for school, it is often necessary to refer back to our books. Those with limited arm and hand use find it nearly impossible to hold open a book and type or write at the same time. We have many fine book holders, including the handy Adjustable Wooden Slant Board for Writing. This desktop easel is designed to reduce the amount of strain put on the user's neck or back by raising the writing surface to a more comfortable and ergonomic angle.
Tabletop scissors offer more leverage, control
Finally, your back-to-school shopping is never complete without a good pair of scissors. The Mounted Table Top Scissors sit flat on the table and offer stability and leverage to those who cannot use traditional scissors.
If you are encountering obstacles with your disability when it comes to school assignments, don’t work against yourself. Save time with our adaptive solutions.
