My Project

I provide services to students in a federal level IV school setting. We provide an emphasis on behavior regulation. Learning does not happen unless their brains are in a regulated state.

I plan on using these materials to help keep my students regulated and ready to learn.

The books will be used to provide instruction on vital social skills - skills they are needing practice and instruction on. The games will be used along with educational material. They will also be used during student "brain breaks". Sensory items such as the slime and floor chairs will be used as coping tools to help keep them regulated. My students will be so excited and willing to use these materials.
