The Flood of 2016 has taken away every thing. My classroom is completely bare. These items will help us heal and get back some normalcy in our daily routine. Each student had special items which they are gaga over which help motivate them on slow days. Replacements have been ordered and well as basic supplies needed in a classroom. One of the Big Joe Roma Lounge Chairs will be used in the "Quiet Room", which students use when they request an extended break and the other will be used to create a reading corner in the classroom. The portable DVD players will be used in my behavior management plan for two students who like individual movie time as a reward. We are rebuilding our sensory integration program ,so the exercise balls and v-rocker will be a beginning to add some depth to that program which in the past has included a mini trampoline, a stationery bike, spinning toys and a therapy swing. Some students also sit on the exer- balls while doing some academic skills. It seems to help them focus. The ring toss and toss across games will help teach motor skills and social skills such as taking turns. It is hard to find a curriculum that works directly out of the box for my students, so the ink cartridges will be used to modify assignments and classwork. Staff will use the rolling adjustable stools to assist student's on their sitting level rather than bending or standing over a student. My students thrive on daily structure and routine. Replacement items will help us get back some structure and routine.I have ordered sensory materials which will help with my students' sensory integration. Some of the materials I ordered will help in all academic areas.
