My Project

I am excited to share a project that aims to enhance the learning experience for our special education students through adapted materials and sensory items. These students thrive when provided with tools tailored to their unique needs, and your support can make a significant impact.

By contributing to this project, you will help us acquire adapted learning materials that cater to various learning styles and abilities.

We plan to create a sensory-rich environment with items like fidget tools, textured materials, and interactive sensory stations. These resources will not only engage and stimulate our students but will also foster a more inclusive and supportive classroom setting.

Thank you for considering this project and for being a crucial part of our mission to provide an inclusive and enriching education for all.

Mrs. Hardee Benignus Elementary School Grades 3-5
