My Project

I provide Occupational Therapy services to students off all grades in 3 different schools within the county. The students that I see come with a specific challenges and obstacles that can impact their ability to learn in a traditional way. I requesting sensory seating to help improve attention and increase movement while in the therapy classroom and in their classroom.

The headphones will be used for students who have auditory sensitivity with hopes to increase their participation in loud places such as gym, lunch, and during assemblies.

My students also need new sensory bins and light boards to increase learning through play.
