My Project

I teach adapted physical education to autistic children grades K-5. My amazing students are already working so hard to learn the routine of class, follow activities presented and are doing phenomenal as always. I find it very important to give them time at the end of each class to choose and play with an item that they enjoy.

My students highly enjoy sensory time.

I am currently working on making a sensory space (sensory mood cube, inflatable Sensa Rock, sequin panel, etc.) for the students to cool down after a fun session of dance/movement, exercise, sport skills and yoga.
