All Materials Need A Place

My students need bookshelves to make the classroom more organized.

My Students

Finding storage and organizing materials can be difficult without much needed book shelves. Autistic children like things to be in order and organized. Having materials all over the place is distracting to these children. Book shelves help us keep materials organized so learning can happen.

My class is an Autistic preschool class consisting of 6-9 students who range in age from 3-5.

Many of them are non-verbal and have sensory, communication, motor and social issues. There are a number of methods & techniques used in the education of autistic children that include modifying curriculum and materials to fit each student's individual learning style. The children in my class are visual learners so we use a variety of pictures, charts and visual representations when teaching. We also use a variety of concrete and hands on materials for students who learn well through their tactile senses and exploration.

My Project

A typical day in my class includes 1:1 or 1:2 time where students work on their fine motor, academic, and imitation skills. Most of the activities during our day are hands on activities which include many file folder games, materials they can manipulate, and visuals. The students are at school from 9-2 so having a wide variety of activities is important. Thus having storage units for all these wonderful materials is important. Having the materials in an organized storage unit will make it easier for us and the students to find what they need to learn.

The donations to this project will help to improve the classroom by giving us much needed storage for the manipulatives, hands on activities, file folders, toys, and music that we use on a daily basis.

Having materials easily accessible will help us to access materials needed to teach students without disrupting their learning. Autistic students need to work in an organized space with little distractions. Having materials all over and unorganized can affect how many learn.
