My Project
Oh the way these minds work. These fidgets will be used while processing emotions sometimes this world can be overwhelming and hard to navigate. They are also a way they can think more clearly while focusing on work in our classroom. Little do they know they are teaching themselves ways to cope and got their bodies back in line without knowing about it.
They will soon realize what they are doing and that is such a sight to see.
Those lights come on and wheels start turning. Oh the progress they will make.
