My Project

Our class is a low income preschool with many children's with special needs. I would love to help my children build their basic knowledge of shapes and numbers through sensory tools. Most of our students need hands-on activities with many visual components. Some of the tools in our classroom now are for upper level children and above what they can do. Many of my students need assistance with grasping items, verbalizing about each item and understanding why we learn about numbers and shapes. I believe these tools will foster better learning in my classroom.
