By the end of August, all teachers should have:

Trampolines and vibration plates: These cannot be used in classrooms where they are out and available for students to access. These tools may be used in a motor room under the guidance and supervision of an OT or COTA. If you currently have either of these items in their classrooms or pod, please remove the items. If you have questions about alternative ways to provide movement breaks or similar sensory input for their students, please let me know and I'll connect you with our site's occupational therapist, Victoria.
