Engaging TPT Activities & Sensory Tools

Help me give my students educational resources from the Teacher's Pay Teacher's website, so many wonderful lessons for all different subjects along with sensory objects to help my students focus while using their new glue sticks.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kerr's classroom raised $323

This project is fully funded

My Students

I teach Special Education in a large, urban school. Our student population hails from countries all over the world. Many of our families are low income and live below the poverty line. All students in our building receive free breakfast and lunch everyday.

My students work hard to overcome the challenges in their lives.

Despite numerous financial and academic challenges, my students are all loving, caring people who are determined to grow and learn!

My Project

My special needs students will use the sensory tools at home to keep them focused on learning. They will be able work on engaging educational resources from the Teachers Pay Teachers website for both literacy and math. My students will also be able to use the glue sticks on the educational resources as well. The lamination pouches will be used to safeguard materials going home to students to use as resources over and over again such as a math multiplication chart. The Time Tracker will keep my students on target during lessons and returning to their computers throughout the day while learning remotely.
