The items I have chosen, like the sensory tools and seat cushions will help my special education students connect with their emotions and help teach them calm down strategies in order for them to have a happy, healthy and successful academic career in school. With these items my students will be able to learn that it is okay to have feelings and show emotions and that there are appropriate ways to de-escalate. By learning to stay in touch with emotions, my students will be able to get back to learning in a positive way.
