Many students with autism have a difficult time remaining focused in school, which impacts their learning. They often require sensory breaks to remain calm and focused, which helps them maximize their learning experience. The items that I've requested will help my students during their breaks to regroup and come back ready for the next activity.
My goal for this project is to provide my students with calming materials to interact with as needed throughout the day.
This will help them to feel better physically and emotionally, both of which are important.
Students with autism often have many extra challenges, and my goal is to assist them with as many of them as possible.
More than half of students from low‑income households
