My Students
Students in my classroom have multiple severe disabilities. Some of these disabilities include autism, reactive attachment disorder, turners syndrome, Down’s syndrome, and some emotional and behavioral disorders.
They beam with joy as they proudly identify letters and discover sounds.
They love to learn!
These students have overcome so many obstacles in such a short time!
93% of students in my classroom qualify for free or reduced lunch. 90% of my students go to therapy outside of the classroom, while 100% of the students have a therapy within the school setting.
My Project
My student learn by doing. Having flexible seating like wobble cushions will increase their learning and decrease their behavior. A regular chair is not a great option for students with special needs. Increasing my tools in the classroom will benefit everyone in our room!! With this flexible seating, the students will have the option to choose their own seating for learning. Students will be able to simply focus on the academic material at hand, and not whether their materials are going to work or not. Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times, they choose a location in the classroom that works for them.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
