The objectives of this grant are to support students who need a different option during PE and recess time due to social and emotional concerns as well as for all students during poor weather days, which happen often on the summit. The second reason is to better support our special education and intervention students. Roughly 19% of our student population is in intervention. Most of those students deal with issues of self management and social emotional needs. Mrs. Williamson and I have tracked about five of those students over the last two years and have been highly aware of the relationship between their social/emotional needs in regards to academic performance. We have found that they all highly benefited from kinesthetic opportunities either prior to or after their intervention block. That said, we have also built in those breaks throughout the day for many students while in the regular classroom setting. As of right now, many of our options deal with playing with a ball. We would like to expand these options for movement and play into the realm of strategic thinking, balance and focus, and engineering. This is why we have decided to try to purchase Magna-tiles, Spooner Boards, and Keva Planks. All students would have access but they will be heavily utilized for specific students based on their individual needs. The sensory paths have been studied by occupational and behavioral therapists and have shown decreases in behaviors and increases in cognition. Again, through movement they help focus the students provide a calm structure to our hallways and mutli-purpose room
