My Project

Our class is a combined class of Kindergarten and First Grade Autism. They learn a lot from structure and routine. Our student feel proud if there is a sense of ownership. Students also build their confidence when they are doing by themselves.

Having the "comfy floor seats" will help my students in terms of structure inside the classroom.

We will use the comfy seats in our morning meeting time and on calming area. Having their own seat will help them be responsible by taking care of their own materials .
