My Project

Help support my students with their learning growth in stressful environments with providing them with sensory calming strips and floor calming mats to support their understanding of their frustration and different abilities to cope with their social anxieties. Allowing my students to understand and grow through their emotions will help and support their behavior as well as providing them with dry erase markers to allow them to express their emotions through drawing. Helping my students gain these abilities will allow them to support their social abilities and involvement in pur society.
