My Students

This group of students are 6-8th graders who all have severe special needs, including but not limited to both cognitive and physical disabilities. However, even though they are students with disabilities, they are all able and willing to participate in sports, specifically soccer.

This year, the students and myself decided to put together a special needs soccer program within our District 75 school.

These students learn through movement. The ultimate goal while participating in soccer is increasing interpersonal and socio-emotional social skills while laughing and enjoying one another. Giving our students opportunities to engage while moving offers them opportunities like their general education peers.

While all of these students have multiple disabilities, they understand they are different. The importance of them engaging in all of the same activities as their general education peers is exceptionally important to the students themselves, their families and our entire organization.

My Project

Our student-athletes all come to the soccer field with an array of disabilities and on their own choose to participate in the game of soccer. These student-athletes are students with developmental disabilities with varying levels and knowledge of the game and will be expected to attend a weekly soccer practice just like any other student-athlete in the general education environment. Without funding, our school cannot offer jerseys and soccer balls for each of our student-athletes.

Equity within all of our schools is imperative and the feeling of inclusiveness.

Given that our students have special needs we strive to offer all of our students the same opportunities.
