The items I’m requesting, such as sensory-friendly art supplies, tactile materials, and tools for hands-on crafts, will provide my students with opportunities to explore their creativity while addressing their sensory needs. These resources will help students improve their fine motor skills, build confidence, and regulate emotions through engaging, therapeutic activities. By incorporating sensory elements into the learning process, these tools will create a more inclusive and stimulating environment, allowing all students to express themselves in fun and creative ways.
My students are incredibly unique because they come from diverse backgrounds and face a variety of challenges, including sensory processing needs.
Despite these challenges, they are resilient, curious, and full of potential. They thrive when given opportunities to learn in ways that cater to their individual needs. What makes them truly special is their creativity and enthusiasm—they are eager to explore, create, and grow when given the right tools and support. Their willingness to express themselves in innovative ways inspires me every day.
More than half of students from low‑income households
