Noise Cancelling Headphones & Theraputty for SCIL Classroom

Help me give my students the tools to help them concentrate & meet their sensory needs!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Maur's classroom raised $224

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are full of joy and energy every day! They are excited to be at school to learn and be with their peers! They want to succeed just as much as their parents and I want them to!

If they cannot learn the way I teach, I will teach in the way they learn!

These students are eager to learn! They enjoy the daily activities and academics they work on! I cannot wait to watch them grow and learn together in this community and family they have together.

My Project

My students are sensitive to loud noises and noise cancelling headphones help them focus. We are currently using headphones for computers and coiling up the wire which is equally distracting as the noise.

My kiddos are in desperate need of real noise cancelling headphones of their own and theraputty.

Theraputty is a great tool to give kiddos a break and have an opportunity for some sensory time.

Please help me to provide these tools for my kiddos as well as some extra binders for their seat work.
