My Students

As a special education teacher in an elementary school, I provide support and instruction for students in the general education setting with a team of Education Technicians. We have the privlige of working with a wonderful group of students across grade levels and classes. We provide support to students with a variety amazing strengths and disabilities. These students work hard every day to keep their behavior in check by implementing socially appropriate behavior strategies and to remain self regulated.

My Project

My classroom holds an additional behavior support program for our school. Since this classroom is new, we are starting from scratch. The project will play a large roll is providing necessary materials for students. I choose items that could easily been clean to keep students and staff healthy.

Providing students with the rocking chair, fidgets, and calming activities will allow us to stock the calm down/ regulation space for students to implement strategies taught and new skills learned.

I have a corner in the classroom that is dedicated to the break space. Currently it has a table and chair with some putty. Help us provide more options and tools to meet the diverse needs and preferences of the students.

The games and building materials, such as UNO, will be used to practice social and executive functioning skills we teach in Social Skills Club each week. The Emojicon Uno will be high interest for the older students! The materials were chosen with a focus on collaboration and creativity as well as age respectfulness.
