Ms. Bennett’s Extremely Exceptional Students

My Project

Hi, my name is Chaney Bennett and I am needing help for my Special Needs Classroom filled with brilliant young minds who need love, support, and attention.

I am connected to my students and I know they depend on me as their guiding light.

The items I have included in my cart will allow me to facilitate cleanliness, calmness and confidence. Many of my students have trouble focusing, behavioral issues and sometimes just need a moment to breathe.

Please help me make that possible!
