Mrs. C.'s classroom raised $157

Stop Pulling My Hair

My special education students need sensory tools such as pencil grips, sensory objects, and stress balls to help them focus on learning.

Mrs. C.
Grades 6-8

I am a 6th grade special education teacher who works with Autistic and learning disabled students.

I want to provide my students with sensory objects so they do not pick at their skin and to decrease the amount of times they are picked on by other students for looking different.

I need sensory objects, pencil grips, stress balls, and pencils to provide a healthy sensonry diet. These will give my students a positive behavior to focus on and reduce the amount of times they are picked on.

You can help provide positive sensory behaviors and help stop these students from pulling out their hair, picking at their skin, and fidgeting.
