My Special Ed Sensory Corner for Hardworking Students

Help me give my students bean bag chairs, weighted blankets, and other tools to help them cope through brain breaks so they can have productive periods throughout the day!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Charity's classroom raised $590

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The sensory corner is new to this location and while I strongly encourage 20 minutes quiet work the students earn break breaks and fun Fridays. This brand new classroom has now come back since pre-covid days.

My plan is to keep the small group working and building their study skills along with catching up with all their work.

I plan to get each student to move up a grade level.

My students are very low and require this support rather than being in a large group setting with too much distraction. These tools (bean bag chairs, weighted blankets, sensory toys, etc.) will specifically help each student whether autistic, PTSD, dyslexic or intellectually challenged. I appreciate your donation or choosing a specific item to cover for my students.
