This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My classroom is a safe haven for amazing students with autism who thrive in a calm, structured, and supportive environment. Many of my students experience sensory processing challenges that can make the school day overwhelming and exhausting. We need Sensory a Tent, Magnetic Chalkboard Sign Set, Weighted Vest, Silicone Adaptive Aids, and more. A dedicated sensory space filled with appropriate tools would provide a critical outlet to help them regulate their emotions, focus on learning, and build self-confidence.
To meet their unique needs, I am requesting sensory materials such as fidget tools.
These items will support my students in managing sensory overload, reduce meltdowns, and improve their ability to stay engaged in class activities.
When students feel calm and supported, they are better able to learn, interact with peers, and develop important social-emotional skills. Your generosity will help create a peaceful environment that truly makes a difference for children with autism in my classroom.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
