My Students

This class consists of seven severe to moderate mentally disabled students. These students range in the age from 11-17 years old and they represent multicultural and diverse backgrounds. Though the primary handicapping condition of these students is mental disability or multiple disabilities, all of these students have secondary handicapping conditions such as vision, Cerebral Palsy and seizure disorders. They all have fine motor and sensory problems. These students require some or total care for self-help. All of these students are offered an opportunity to learn under the South Carolina Curriculum Standards (Extensions and Adaptations). Individualized Education Goals are written to reflect selected standards.

My Project

Utilization of our multi-sensory environment is a significant part of our classroom program. These students will be engaged in activities in the multi-sensory room, the adapted playground and adapted physical education program. These environments provide a safe way for them to engage in activities that we take for granted. Within the classroom, my students need to explore different sensory needs on a daily bases. This specific chair meets the needs of several of my students' sensory needs. The students can take turns in the rocking chair during lessons, large group activities, or just during leisure time. The sensory of rocking helps many of my students to focus.
