Meet Our Sensory Needs!

Help me give my students ways to meet their sensory needs across school settings!

My Project

School is full of lots to smell, lots to hear, lots to see, and lots to touch. For some of our students all of the input can be a little overwhelming. For others, specific sensory input can calm and relax them.

The materials in this project will help our students meet their sensory needs.

These sensory tiles, chairs, and fidgets will be used in a variety of settings for students who have difficulty with sensory processing. Students will use these materials inside and outside the general education classroom across the school's grade levels.

By meeting our students' sensory needs, we'll prepare them to learn all of the math and reading as well.
