My Project

I am currently working with a student that is struggling immensly in school due to several factors going on in their life. Many challenges are outside of his control, but he has a hard time navigating his strong emotions, the rigor of school, social situations, and expressing his feelings.

I've been working with him on setting up a routine so he can succeed.

He LOVES Sonic, so I want to incorporate his interests in this behavior plan. For example, he has very low self-confidence when he is reading, so I want to get him some Sonic books which will allow him to read about a topic he has a high level of interest/background knowledge. My hope is that this will help him to build his confidence in reading and will grow into reading other books.

The action figures are intended to be used for academics or play. He has a hard time expressing himself, but I'm hoping that through creative role play, he will be able to use these figures to play out scenarios he is struggling with. He will also be able to use them to play with peers.

The plush animal will be used for him to hold when he's having a hard time. He can use it as a "comfort tool", and/or even use it while he is reading. If he feels comfortable and safe emotionally, he can be more comfortable to take academic risks. Overall, I want him to feel better about himself, and I'm hoping as he builds interest, he will also build confidence!
