My Project

I'm in the process of building not only a calming corner, but a classroom of flex seating options for my students. As we're still coming back from COVID, it's vital that students have a comfortable place to learn and feel at home.

I work with special education students, and in high school, we focus on job and life skills, which includes a lot of hands-on activities as opposed to paper and pencil work.

The building activities bin is a great opportunity for my students to work with their hands and figure out their fine motor skills.
