As a new Behavior Interventionist, my job is to help students with social and emotional regulation. My students need extra help to de-escalate and get their emotions back on track. To do this, I plan to implement flex seating. Flex seating helps my students focus on the task-at-hand and contributes to sensory needs that some students may exhibit. I also plan to use weighted lap desks, weighted lap pads and tactile pillows. It has been scientifically proven that pressure can provide calming effects. My classroom will have a "Calm Down Corner" where these devices will be readily available to any of my students who need some time to get their emotions back on track. These materials will make a huge difference in my students' learning and learning outcomes!
