My Students
My twenty-eight students are fourth-graders in a high poverty elementary school. They have a wide range of abilities, needs, and concerns.
Even though my students may deal with struggles at home, they come to school every day ready and willing to be part of our family and learn what they can.
They want to do their best and prove that they are capable of being successful. They strive to be "The Best They Can Be" each and every day!
My Project
Sensory paths are essential for students and can allow them to spend part of their day jumping, hopping, and pushing themselves through their distractions and onto the next learning activity.
This sensory path will be used when a quick break is needed to boost their brain and come back to learning.
My students will benefit from this sensory path in many ways. Have you ever been sitting in a meeting and just need to get up and move around for a few minutes? Well, imagine a student feeling that way and unable to do anything because they are expected to sit and learn. This sensory path will give them the chance to get up and move and restart their brain. On rainy days, without recess, students will be able to get some movement in. Maybe one student is frustrated with an assignment and can't find a way to continue on. This sensory path will give them a brain break to distract them for a few minutes and better enable them to come back to the task at hand.
This sensory path is going to make a huge difference in my students' emotional and educational world. Your help to get this started is appreciated more than you will ever know!
