  • Gym Gym Gym Fun

    Funded May 7, 2024

    To everyone involved- I can't thank you enough! I am still completely overwhelmed!!!! As I read the notice about this project being fully funded, I announced it to my students & they were screaming with joy!!! This just goes to show you what a wonderful group of children I am surrounded by. As young as they are, they are incredibly sensitive.

    My students were so excited at even the idea of us getting new items for the gym. The day the boxes arrived was very overwhelming for the children. I had different classes open different boxes. They were soooo excited!

    All the boxes were unpacked, displayed and fully functioning within just a few days. I am still not sure who wanted everything in place more - me or the children. To say these items are useful for our Physical Education space is an understatement. The students love that they can utilize everything on their own. My students are quite independent & I love watching them use all the equipment.

    I am so appreciative to everyone for being soooo generous- especially with everyone having their own expenses!There just aren't words to express my emotions! Thank you just doesn't seem to be enough!!

    The students and I are currently contemplating our next project...

    With so much love & emotions,”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Cindy Braunzweig

  • Organizing for Autism!

    Funded Dec 19, 2018

    To everyone involved- I can't thank you enough! I am still completely overwhelmed!!!! As I read the notice about this project being fully funded, I announced it to my students & they were screaming with joy!!! This just goes to show you what a wonderful group of children I am surrounded by. They didn't quite understand why I cried (lol).

    My students were so excited at even the idea of the project being funded, they were telling everyone in the school building as they encountered both students and staff on the day we received notice. The day the boxes arrived was very overwhelming for the children. Some screamed with joy, some cried as they were so happy. One of my students with ASD yelled, "It's just like Christmas again!"

    All the carts were unpacked, assembled and fully functioning within two days. I am still not sure who wanted everything in place more - me or the children. To say these are carts are the best thing ever in my NEST classroom is an understatement. The students love that they can access everything they need on their own. They often say, "Our classroom is so tidy now". They also have become so much more independent in such a short time (which makes our day go very smoothly!)

    I am so appreciative to everyone for being soooo generous- especially during the December holiday season with everyone having their own expenses!There just aren't words to express my emotions! Thank you just doesn't seem to be enough!!

    The students and I are currently contemplating our next project... maybe some ipads so that each child in the class will have their own.

    With so much love & emotions,”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Cindy Braunzweig

In teaching students with ASD, I have found that they struggle with organizational skills as well as the ability to independently retrieve materials they need. Having both books as well as manipulatives and center activities clearly labeled and accessible to them in mobile carts would be beneficial in fostering their independence. Also, having everything uniform is more conducive in a NEST environment as many different colors/mismatched furniture/bookshelves are distracting to my students on the spectrum. The goal here is for my students on the spectrum to be able to self-regulate and independently access all they need to be successful on a daily basis.
