My Students

My students are children with Autism who have sensory issues, language delays, and difficulty making friends. I have 4 kindergartners, 1 first grader, and 2-second graders. These materials will help them learn how to calm themselves down, stay focused and reduce behaviors. It will help them to succeed so that hopefully one day they can make friends and be more independent.

My Project

These ball chairs will be great to help me teach my students how to sit as well as give them the sensory input they need. I will use these chairs during group time and one on one time with all of my students. These chairs will also reduce behaviors because they are giving my kids what they need. I can also use these chairs during story time. My students will love how fun these chairs are to sit in! These ball chairs are definitely a win for my class! Thank you!
