My Project

My students will use headphones and building blocks to support sensory regulation, focus, and hands on learning. Headphones provide calming music, sound reduction, and listening to books, all things to help students manage auditory input, and stay engaged.

At the same time building blocks promote fine motor skills, spatial reasoning, creativity, and cooperative play.

This combination encourages independent exploration, supports self regulation, and provides a calming, structured activity that meets the diverse sensory and learning needs of students in a special education setting.

My students will love these headphones for the new school year and enjoy playing with these blocks.
