Help me give my students the sensory tools, such as therapy putty or silicone fidgets, to self-regulate in their classrooms in order to be calm, happy, and ready to learn!
Our students are kind, brave, and from all areas of the globe. They are a part of our school family and find trust, peace, love, and acceptance from our community. There may be ups and downs, but we love each other no matter what.
Each student has their own unique challenges, but they persevere to be the best they can be, everyday.
Our students are enthusiastic to come to school and to learn, and they inspire me to be better whenever I am around them!
My Project
All students benefit from utilizing tools that help them regulate their emotions. This creates a learning environment where students are self-regulated and ready to learn and grow. Having a variety of quiet sensory items provides the physical outlet to self-soothe and make good choices.
With this project, students will be able to use quiet items such as therapy putty or glitter wands to calm their bodies, self-regulate, and transition back into learning seamlessly.
These materials will provide students access to a sensory-rich environment. Instead of singling students out, it will celebrate differences and strengthen the concept of fairness in the classroom.
From the funding of this project, students will have access to quiet fidgets that promote positive stress management and enhance focus in and out of the classroom.
