One area of growth that I have noticed among my students is their ability to stay in one place, and give me their direct attention. I am requesting several different fidget tools in order to help my students focus on their learning. My students come from very diverse backgrounds, where their needs are not always met. They cannot always help that they get distracted, and I do not intend to punish them for that. Instead, I need to provide tools for them, so that they can build self-confidence, and become better learners. However, I do not have the budget to do so myself. By donating to my project, you would ensure that our next generation of learners receives the support and motivation that they need to become successful.
