Fidget Frenzy!

Help me give my students fidgets to utilize to maintain and extend focus in all academics!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Carson's classroom raised $165

My Project

Please help support my classroom with sensory needs. These children need to find tools that will help sustain focus when learning is taking place on a daily basis. The attention time span is minimal and these fidgets will help to increase focus during education learning times.

These sensory items will be given to the students to utilize and keep when needing to increase attention to difficult tasks.

I've integrated many sensory items into my learning in the pull out setting and they have proven successful! Help me increase my fidget options for these children!
