My Project

Many of the students that I work with have difficulty with self-regulation. Making sure that these students are able to regulate is important so that they are able to learn and be at their best.

These materials will help provide my students with tools that they need to calm down and focus.

The glitter jars will help to settle students who feel anxious and are unable to settle themselves. Having their own glitter jars to use when they need it will help to cut down on unexpected behaviors in the classroom. The fidgets and incentives will help to motivate my students to do their best.
