My Students

Our students bring creativity, knowledge and passion to school every day! They have so much to offer the school, the classroom and each other. The potential for these students to learn and achieve is endless!

We are fortunate to have a diverse group of students with a wide variety and range in strengths and abilities.

Along with these great strengths comes a variety of different sensory needs that need to be met in order for the students to learn. All it requires to begin running a sensory smart classroom is a willingness to look at the classroom and its routine through the lens of a child’s sensory needs, and the creativity and motivation to try to do something just a little bit differently. Many sensory needs can be addressed with little to no equipment however, some activities require special equipment. Some of these supports work for students who are distracted easily such as access to the a bin of various fidgets, and access to noise canceling headphones (if it helps the child focus, etc. as desired by the child). In between each academic subject time is dedicated to allow a movement break where students can access the various sensory materials in the room as well as engage in a group movement activity.

My Project

Starting the day and throughout the day, the students can utilize the many different seating options that I am requesting including Howdahug seats, Chair Ball Chairs, Cushion Disc O Sit, and Chair Balls. I am also requesting one Fidget Twidget 2 Bulb Trackers. Students are encouraged to use sensory supports during all academic activities.

Addressing the sensory needs of all students creates a classroom with self-control, self regulation and learning.

Throughout the day there are many opportunities to capitalize on the importance of addressing students' sensory needs and incorporating the activities into the classroom routines.
