Within our classroom, students have difficulties regulating their emotional and social behaviors due to their disabilities. To alleviate stresses, we schedule quiet times consistently throughout the day so that students have time to manage their emotions and overwhelming sensations. We always incorporate student interests to alleviate any negative behaviors. All of our students like to swing, but in the winter or on rainy days we may not be able to go outside. Having a swing in class would help promote positive behaviors. Students would earn the ability to swing when they finished an assignment. They would learn time management, to read the swing schedule and to share with others when using a swing in the classroom.
Certain activities, like playing with fidgets, swinging or lining up blocks and dominoes, help students self-soothe and calm themselves, therefore, building positive emotional experiences at school. Differentiating instruction by playing social/emotional games, using incentives like fidgets and visual schedules, teaches students how to create positive social and emotional awareness.
