This is a Self-Contained Behavioral Unit. These students have experienced severe trauma in their lives from very young ages. Many have been in foster care and group homes. These kids are amazing and very resilient. Our classroom is able to help them feel safe and stable. These students benefit from behavior supports such as materials to help them self monitor, flexible seating, and social skills games and books. We need academic supports such as white boards, journals with wide spacing and raised lines, and manipulatives.
My Project
The timers create structure by timing breaks, walks, and expected work and station time. I have chosen magnetic pencil holders to hold classroom supplies in high areas. This is necessary in a behavior unit for if a student does not have a safe body. Finally, being a Special Education teacher, I go through a lot of printer ink. Since a printer was not in my classroom I have provided my own. It is helpful to be supplied with ink.
Emotional and Social Supports are needed for my classroom.
Noise Reduction Headphones will support my students from the overstimulation of sounds. I have chosen books and games to support social and emotional skills. Prizes are useful incentives for work completion and positive reinforcement for behavior.
