Help me give my students resources to help with their sensory disabilities and the ability to calm down when it is to much stimulation. By having these materials, my students will be able to help engage and participate.
I am a K-1 exceptional education teacher. My students are fantastic! They like school and want to learn. My students sometimes have difficulties with accessing the grade level content, staying on task, and engaging for long periods of time. My students need to be engaged during their learning in order to keep their attention.
My students are able to close some of their learning gaps when given extra time, engaging resources, and accommodations to grade level content.
My students often need more time to help them learn content and this grant will help provide them with an opportunity to use programs above and beyond the school day to enhance their skills. They also need engaging resources that allow them to learn in a fun and engaging manner.
Many of my students have sensory issues. Providing my students with resources that help them function throughout the school day and enhance their learning is paramount to success.
My Project
Many of my students have sensory issues. They are overstimulated with all of the rules and regulations required by COVID. Many of them have a hard time keeping their masks due to sensory disorders. My students are all in the general education classroom, but sometimes need a location to calm down and reset prior to going back into the classroom to learn. The resources and materials included in this project with help with accessing the general education content and also being able to take a break to reset so that they can regain composure to go back into the classroom to learn.
