Help me give my students a comfy and fun classroom environment to support learning!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Foody's classroom raised $502
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
In this special education resource classroom, we have a lot of sensory needs. These fun tools will help us get the most out of our learning by using a multi-sensory approach.
We would love to have flexible seating and a jellyfish "class pet".
The students love to interact with one another and on special occasions we would appreciate the option of playing some learning games. These students would also benefit from having fidget bands for their chairs to decrease the distractions during our time together. This will help the students to be more engaged in their work.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
