Exploring, Learning and Sensory

My Project

Sensory supports can help students attend and learn. Students need opportunities to grow and learn, while having fun and being engaged. Additionally, these supports can enhance gross motor skills and coordination, as students learn to balance and control their movements.

My students can increase their attention and work on gross motor, core strengths while exploring and doing sensory play.

With your support, we can provide these opportunities for many preschool students. The sensory bins will consist of sand and airflow. This will allow the students to explore the sand and learn at the same time.
