In my integrated preschool classroom there are 16 students total, split between an AM session and PM sessions. Some of our students are special education students who are being educated alongside their peer mentors. We are supported by special education team members such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech and language therapists.
My Project
My last indoor recess project was a huge success for our entire school! All students have been able to enjoy the different toys and activities that were added to our school gym- so I want to get more for them! During the cold winter months our students cannot play outside, so we want to make sure they can move and have fun inside. We want to make sure students get the opportunity to play and discover in appropriate and safe ways. Through play at recess- children not only develop their gross motor skills, but they also learn about teamwork and valuable communication skills: including negotiation, cooperation, sharing, problem-solving, and coping skills, such as perseverance and self-control. Having a safe outlet to get out their energy is so important for every student to effectively reduce stress and calm anxiety, making students happier and more attentive in the classroom.
