Help me give my students regulation tools to help them stay focus and calm for school. Help me give my students a printer to provide worksheets and different approaches to support their handwriting.

My Project
The materials and supplies I am requesting will allow me to create an engaging, supportive, and enjoyable learning environment for my students. With these resources (wacky tracks, fidget toys, board games, chewy notebooks), my students will have access to regulation tools that help them calm their bodies and focus their attention. Once they are regulated, they are better prepared to participate in meaningful activities designed specifically for their developmental needs. These may include learning to write their names, strengthening their hands for improved fine motor skills, and practicing other foundational skills that will support their success in school and daily life. Your support will directly empower my students to engage more fully, build confidence, and reach their goals.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
