My Students

My students require a much more individualized and specialized way of learning. They learn through hands-on materials and visuals. They need access to materials that keep all of their materials organized. When provided with this type of learning environment, my students can learn and excel!

"It is never too late to expand the mind of a person on the autism spectrum" -Dr. Temple

Autism is an extremely challenging disability that affects every aspect of my students' lives. My classroom is made up of eight young people with autism. We are located in a low-income school where I need to buy most, if not all, of my own supplies.

My Project

After this past year of virtual learning, coming back into school I want my students to be as active as much as possible!

My students, at times, have struggled during social interactions with the general education peers during gym time for inclusion.

They love to play with others, and at times, require assistance with appropriate interactions with others during inclusion for gym.

A parachute, jump ropes, balls they can bounce on, and sports balls will help get all that built up energy out and will feel comfortable with our classroom equipment! The bouncing balls they can bounce on will help with any anxiety issues during the hard times during inclusion in gym where they are nervous interacting with others, and the parachute can be a relaxing as well as good exercise. Lastly, the soccer ball, football and basketball will help them see if they enjoy the sport and become interested in playing on a team!
