Neurodivergent Learners

Help me give my students access to sensory tools and hands-on materials

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jami's classroom raised $702

This project is fully funded

My Project

Half of my students are diagnosed with autism and have a wide range of needs. Theses students would benefit from sensory tools and hands on toys that spark their interests.

This project would provide multi sensory tools and toys for my neurodivergent students.

Calming tools, such as chewy toys, manipulatives and a calming tent will help with their sensory regulation. Hands-on toys, such as blocks, will increase engagement and imagination. Board games to increase social interaction will benefit the older students who are learning to play with others.

My neurodivergent students all have unique and different learning styles and interests. This project will allow me to build trust and relationships with them in their individual ways and help them meet their maximal potential.
