Classroom Tools

Help me give my students the tools they need to access the general education curriculum.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stroud-Lusk's classroom raised $1,001

This project is fully funded

My Project

The tools purchased will provide students with the tools necessary to access the general education curriculum. They will use the Sand and Water Table Set, Light Table, and other items to take sensory breaks, enabling them to reset and focus in the classroom. Other tools listed will be used as prizes for the students. The prizes can be used as motivational tools for them to remain focused and alert during the class. I have also requested printer ink which will be used to print materials for the students in the classroom. All of the items will be used in the special education classroom for students with learning differences.
