My goal is to create a classroom environment where each student can figure out what kind of learner they are and become a self-advocate. I have already provided a variety of smaller items (chair bands, inflatable cushions, hand fidgets, privacy boards, etc) to help my students meet their sensory needs in our room. My students and their parents comment on what a positive difference it has made for learning and focus. I want to empower my students by helping them make choices about their best ways to learn. It is amazing to watch a wiggly student be able to focus on academic tasks when he is given an outlet for movement. And it is equally great to watch a student's test grades improve because she has found her focus in a quiet, distraction-free space. I want to provide my students greater opportunities to meet their sensory needs so that they are able to reach their full potential. Things like wobble stools, exercise balls with rings, and noise-cancelling headphones can be game changers for some of my students. These tools will allow my students to release energy, remove distractions, take their choice of seating anywhere in the room, and have more control over our classroom learning environment.
