My Project

The items that I requested is to create a classroom oasis for my students with supports.

My goal is to create an environment where students feel relief, loved, and supported.

For students to be able to analyze their own individual needs and discover their responses to various multi-sensory tools. To participate in their everyday routines and activities as independently and successfully as possible!

My students are still learning what they need to support them. As a teacher to students with disabilities I know supports need to be put in place. Supports such as colorful visuals classroom decor, sensory items markers in lots of glue, cleaning supplies to have fun and keep safe are all sports to will help create a supportive classroom oasis .
