My Project

We are a small group, therapeutic classroom at the middle school level. I am always looking for new and creative fidgets and sensory tools that will not only help de-escalate students but bring them joy during periods of calm.

Students are currently trialing new sensory based items and these would be perfect additions to our classroom resources.

We are trying to better incorporate the five senses and multiple intelligences into our social emotional curriculum. Thank you so much for considering my classroom and helping to develop new senses and skills!
