My Project

Sensory items are used to help student that have trauma-based behaviors calm down and sort out what set off the trigger to cause irrational thoughts and feelings. These students stay with me for 15 minutes or and they return to class once they are calmed down and resume with whatever is taking place in the classroom thus giving the child a break and the teacher. Music and electronics just happen to be a couple of major saviors of ReSet rooms. Seeing that I have to turn in data for my students I would like to show progress by recording on the iPad and adding the footage to my everyday data as an attachment.

My goal for this project is to include children that are diagnosed with Autism into my ReSet Curriculum, because they don't get the opportunity to come in and express how they are feeling like the rest of the students.

Sometimes all that is needed is a listening ear to clear up some of these behavioral issues. Oftentimes Autism is confused with behavioral issues, and I end up seeing some of the students anyway.

I want this to be a ReSet room for all students. These children are faced with adversities I had no clue about at their age, they want to be better, and they struggle to do so. I want to be a bright light at the end of the tunnel for our future leaders.
