Let's Focus Our Brains to Help Them Grow!

Help me give my students fidgets to help them focus in class and start conversations!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hindle- McGuire's classroom raised $285

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am very lucky and have 12 amazing students! We are a special education, small class comprising of students who are ENL (English as a new language) as well as having a variety of disabilities and needs; ie- autism.

This group of students deserve the world, deserve anything that will make learning and socializing easier!

Although the fidgets do help with focus during lessons they are also great ways to open up communication between the students. This is an idea for them to interact and socialize together in a non-judgmental, non stressful way.
