My Students

Fidgets are us ! So what better way to help us fidget less by sending us some gadgets to help us focus and be attentive.

My students come from low income families.

They are eager to learn and love to engage in every activity. We are a title one school and have limits funding and resources. The students have many diverse backgrounds mostly come from immigrant families who can not provide the resources outside of school.

My Project

Many of our students suffer from attention and sensory issues. These issues can not be addressed solely by the OT in our school? These student require assistance all day long in the classroom, with 30 students it is not an easy task. Having the seat cushion, fidget sticks and specialized writing paper will assist these studies in becoming attentive and successful in the classroom setting.

It is important to me as a special education teacher to see the students who struggle with attention issues have the tools and resources to be successful like their peers and have opportunities to control there ADHD.
