All of the materials in this list will help the students who have almost no sensory materials in their classroom or out on the play yard. Our school was supposed to be turned into a charter school, and the teachers who left took ALL of the technology, sensory materials, and outside playground equipment.
These materials will provide the basics so that these students can get their sensory needs met in an appropriate manner. We will use the technology of the ipad and projector in order to use our evidence based teacher program Teach Town Basics, a computer program that helps students build basic skills. The ipad will also be used to help keep the students on task and for positive reinforcement in the classroom. The outside equipment will be used as hard work so that the students can focus on their academics since we have an empty sensory room and only a gated concrete enclosure for outside recess. We will play social games by throwing the footballs and organized games of soccer out on the play yard. The weighted vest, teethers, and rocking chair will help calm the students so that they can focus during regular instruction. Students diagnosed with ASD need sensory input in order to help focus during regularly scheduled instruction and we will use these tools to help facilitate learning.
