My Project

My students are curious and expressive but due to their struggles with learning, they often lack faith in their own abilities.

It is my job to support them the best I can and give them the tools they need to succeed.

All students learn differently and benefit from a variety of supports. The bean bag will be used in our calm corner while the squeeze balls will be used during lessons.

Having access to sensory items will aid in their ability to maintain focus, learn better and have increased stimulation throughout the school day.
