My Students
My students are individuals. They all present themselves differently due to their disabilities. Every day is an opportunity for each child to grow and feel amazing! Our students are working on developing more independence when it comes to regulating and communicating their emotions and experiences.
I teach at a Title I school in Arizona where roughly 70% of our students are receiving free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch.
My students are in a resource setting and we support them academically, socially and emotionally every day. Our students are facing constant struggles right now and we continue to introduce them to new and individual ways to process what they are going through.
My Project
A typical classroom has those four-legged chairs that have been used by so many students now they squeak and shake and can be uncomfortable at times. There's been a new wave of the concept of flexible seating and our students constantly gravitate towards options other than those normal, boring chairs!
With more seating options, we're creating more opportunities for focused in-person learning.
A slight wobble, a softer cushion, or a different angle can make all the difference in a student honing in and focusing versus struggling to stay on task. A quick selection in how they sit can help our students have that tiny distraction to be able to focus at the same time.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
