We anticipate using it during transitions and as a structured movement break to support students with focus, regulation, and readiness to learn. It will be especially helpful for students who benefit from movement and sensory input to help them feel calm and in control.\r\n\r\nAlthough students have not used the sensory path yet, they have been so excited hearing about it! When we talk about having a special space to jump, move, and follow a path, their faces light up. They are especially eager for a fun and active way to take breaks during the school day.\r\n\r\nNext year, we will introduce the sensory path as part of our social-emotional learning and classroom routines. Students will learn how to use it safely and purposefully as a tool for self-regulation. We will focus on helping them recognize when their bodies need movement or a break and make independent choices to use the path.\r\n\r\nAs the year progresses, students will build independence in managing their emotions, improve their ability to follow directions and participate in group activities, and strengthen their overall readiness to learn.\r\n\r\nThis project would not have been possible without your generous support through DonorsChoose.
