Special Needs Project: Platform Swing

Help me give my students a platform swing. We have students at the school that are sensory seeking and can become aggressive due to being over stimulated with no where to place that energy in a safe manner.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Adams's classroom raised $185

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

With this platform swing we will be able to give our students with high sensory needs a way to express and let those emotions out in a safe and predictable manner. Often times because of lack of resources, the kids that suffer the most are our special need kids. We need a way to help to facilitate emotional regulation through movement. Autistic children often learn through positive reinforcement. By having the platform swing as a positive reward and snacks, this can help them to learn cause and effect for good behaviors.
