My Students

We are a special education classroom in a Title 1 school. We serve students K-2 with a variety of developmental disabilities. Our primary focus is on communication and basic school skills. We currently have 11 students in the program whom would benefit greatly from these much needed supplies.

My Project

The materials will be used in a Title 1 school with a racially diverse student population. The items selected will help students regulate and enhance their learning experience throughout the school day. These tools will support the neurodiversity of each student in the classroom. We have 11 students whose sociability, learning, attention, and mood impact their capacity to participate fully. With the help of these sensory activities each student can better regulate /engage in the learning process throughout the day. We would appreciate your support in funding this project and helping make our students school experience more enriching.
