My Students
We are the teachers of an Autism Support Classroom that supports 1st - 6th grade. Students have sensory needs and rely on modified lighting, noise-canceling materials, specialized seating, break down/cool down corners, snacks as incentives, modified tasks, etc.
Work must be accommodated to their IEP goals and learning habits/frames of mind.
They also require increased support from paraprofessionals. Our assistants often work with students in small groups so we can individualize instructions and make learning more personal.
My Project
Help us provide a sensory space to help our students be the most successful they can be, both socially and academically.
The sensory room will be used for any student who needs a sensory break.
Sometimes students with autism and other exceptionalities feel overwhelmed, overloaded, or just have a negative reaction to what is happening during school. When this happens, they need a break. A lot of times, this break includes sensory items.
We are creating a room where neuro-diverse students can go when they need this sensory break.
They will have a variety of choices because each and every student is so unique. Students will learn to ask for their break and self-regulate, and then they will be able to return to their learning environment. I am so excited to see how successful our students are when they have access to this room.
