Motor Room Sensory Activities

Help me give my students more options for indoor recess.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Russell's classroom raised $235

My Project

We have a few class sessions who are unable to access the playground at our school We would like to increase the number of sensory and gross motor options for them to utilize in our indoor motor space. We have students who are seeking sensory input and these items will help provide input for our movers and shakers.

We are looking to increase the number of activities we have to provide sensory input for our students with differing abilities.

Please consider donating to increase the number of sensory input items and activities we can offer to our ECSE students. Bouncing, swinging, throwing, and spinning are all highly sought our sensations our students seek throughout the day. The requested items (tree swing, stepping stones, basketball set, and the spinning toy) will provide these experiences for our students. Giving them safe and meaningful ways to engage in these sensations will help them access their greatest potential while at school.
