Let's Make a Sensory Space!

Help me give my students gross motor and sensory supplies to help they stay regulated!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Friend's classroom raised $366

This project is fully funded

My Project

Sensory play is such an integral part in the cognitive, social, and fine motor development of students with disabilities. These new materials like balls, bands, stones and more will motivate and stimulate my students while helping them grow. I will use the materials to create a new sensory / gross motor space in my classroom. Students will be able to use the space all throughout the day. It will help get all those wiggles out.

This new space will help them stay emotionally regulated and set my students up for success.

Thank you for your help!
