My Project

I teach students who have severe cognitive and behavioral disabilities. My students will use the video rocker chair to relieve anxiety and stress. The sensory manipulatives will be used for calming and to teach to the State Standards in Math and ELA. The pizza set and cutting food provide the opportunity for my students to develop fine motor skills while introducing life skills.

My classroom, filled with diverse learners who have multiple disabilities, are in need of sensory items to reduce stress while developing life and academic skills.

Several of my student self stimulate as a calming technique. Providing a floor rocking chair as a substitute provides the ability to decrease the self stimulating behavior.
