My Project

This will be my tenth year teaching as a Special Education ICT Teacher. As the number of students continue in a classroom, this impacts them greatly, especially on students with disabilities, because it limits the space for them to move around. Many of my students struggle with focusing for long periods of time as well as finding a comfortable space for them to calm themselves in the classroom when they become emotionally overwhelmed.

In the next school year, we are trying to create a cozy corner where my students can choose to work or calm themselves in a variety of locations in our room.

Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them.

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. The comfy floor seats will allow for additional, comfortable, floor seating options when working in small groups. They are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom. The mobile media cart will serve as my teacher desk to provide my students the ample amount of space to move around in the classroom. This is especially helpful in the ICT classroom with more than one adult and thirty plus students.

Here's hoping for a great school year ahead.
