My Project
In our lively and diverse classrooms, students are constantly exploring, thinking, and growing, but for some, staying focused can be a real challenge. Many of our learners benefit from having something small and quiet in their hands to help their minds settle and their bodies stay calm. That’s why we’re asking for a variety of fidget tools like stress balls, sensory rings, and silent spinners. These simple tools can make a big difference in helping students regulate their energy, reduce anxiety, and concentrate on learning.
Every student deserves the chance to succeed and fidgets can be the key to unlocking that potential.
Whether it's a child who struggles with ADHD, sensory processing differences, or just big emotions, these tools provide a non-disruptive way to stay engaged. With your support, we can create a more inclusive environment where all students feel empowered and ready to learn every day.
