My Project

Having a sensory corner in my classroom can foster an inclusive environment and enhance the learning process. It provides a designated area where students can retreat when feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or overstimulated. Moreover, a sensory corner caters to the individual needs of students with sensory processing differences, including those with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, or sensory sensitivities. These students may struggle to filter out environmental stimuli, leading to difficulties in focusing on tasks or participating in classroom activities. Having a dedicated space equipped with sensory materials allows them to regulate their sensory input, enabling better concentration and participation in learning activities.

A sensory corner in a classroom can be a valuable asset for promoting emotional regulation, concentration, and overall well-being among students.

It also promotes self-awareness and self-regulation skills among all students. By encouraging them to recognize their own sensory preferences and emotions, we can empower students to advocate for their needs and implement appropriate coping strategies. This not only enhances their emotional resilience but also equips them with valuable life skills that extend beyond the classroom setting.

Having this sensory corner in my classroom will provide all my students with an opportunity to thrive.
