My amazing students are in grades K-1 and attend school in a large, urban school district. All of my students have individual learning plans, and all have been diagnosed with emotional and behavioral disorders. These disorders may include ADHD, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and/or anxiety disorders. All of my students are significantly below grade level with their academic skills and are working hard to get caught up and be successful!
Students in my classroom come to school so excited to learn and get caught up on their academic and school social skills.
Often, they have had difficulty in their previous classroom settings. This program provides an opportunity for these young students to have a successful and positive school experience to get them on track for an amazing career of learning and growing. Help us make a difference for these students, please!
My Project
My special education students have various sensory input needs that we address throughout the school day. This involves engaging their senses through activities that help them to be calm and focused on learning.
When my students touch, see, hear, and smell items in the sensory table, it engages their ability to self-regulate and focus on schoolwork.
These small breaks throughout the day make all the difference in creating a successful school day. Because different items are effective for different students at different times, I am needing a variety of items for students to use for their sensory breaks.
