Cool & Calm Sensory Corner

Help me give my students a calm sensory corner for brain breaks and STEM learning!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Schwarz's classroom raised $559

This project is fully funded

My Project

These items will help revamp our "blue station" sensory corner for our Autistic Support classroom! Our students love and need to take brain breaks and our station helps them do that! Taking breaks in a calm quiet space helps our kids recharge for more learning. I would like to stock our space with things they like to build, fidget, and relax with! I have included a few STEM kits, which they adore and can use their brain power but play at the same time! Playing is learning so help me give our students more!
