My Project

This class is extra special to me as they are my very first class as classroom teacher! They all have their unique personalities and bring a different energy to our classroom every day.

I have affectionally named them the “Cutie Squad”.

My Cutie Squad are just beginning their learning journeys and sometimes struggle with tasks that are usually known as simple tasks to typical children, such as sitting and attending. Being children with special needs; they crave sensory and they really need it so that they’re able to learn. With these vibrating sensory items my students will be able to sit and focus while at whole group lessons as well as use them when they need sensory breaks.

For our children to be the most successful; we have to try our best to provide them with the necessary tools.
