My students have social/emotional anxiety, separation anxiety, as well as trying to take in all the new restrictions that we have with this pandemic. They are only allowed to use the manipulatives in their separate bins. They are not allowed to share manipulatives. They're beginning to show frustration. I usually have a sensory area set up in my room where a child can go if they need a break from the stress they are feeling in the classroom. Due to the pandemic, I am unable to set up the sensory area because I only have enough for 1 child at a time By donating to our project, students will have more opportunities to explore, learn, and create as well as soothe them and relieve some anxiety. You will help to increase student attention and academics. Students will be able to focus more on the academics and lessons if given the opportunities to be able to take sensory breaks when needed, especially knowing more than one student can break at the same time because we will be able to have multiple sensory areas.
