Help me give my students additional tools to regulate emotions, calm down, problem-solve, and distract themselves effectively. Providing structured supports empowers them to develop self-regulation skills, fostering independence, resilience, and success in various learning and social environments.

My Project
I am excited to bring engaging fidgets into my classroom to help students regulate their emotions, stay focused, and develop problem-solving skills. These sensory tools will give them a fun and effective way to calm, engage, and redirect their energy, making a huge difference in their learning experience.
My goal is to create a supportive and inclusive space where every student can explore different fidgets and find what works best for them.
These tools will empower them to build self-regulation skills, boost their confidence, and foster independence in both academics and social interactions.
What makes my students special is their creativity, resilience, and unique ways of learning. They thrive when given hands-on, engaging tools that support their sensory and emotional needs. By bringing fidgets into the classroom, I am embracing their strengths and making sure they have everything they need to succeed!
