My Project

The items listed have been chosen to provide a calming environment that will also provide sensory input to children with special needs. The items provide a variety of visual input to calm and engage them while in a small group resource setting. These items will allow for floor seating and traditional seating for a variety of learning styles and disabilities.

The goal of this project is to provide a calming and safe space for students to relax while being engaged in a small group setting for reading, writing, math, adaptive, and social skills.

Ms. Nichols
Grades 3-5
