Overcoming Emotions

Help me give my students sensory items to deal with their emotions to make progress in their lives.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Sabbineni's classroom raised $168

My Project

Students with multiple disabilities have issues dealing with their emotions. Most of our MDS students are nonverbal, and expressing their wants and needs is very hard. Some of the students have neurological issues, which makes it more challenging. They need different sensory items to calm them down. The MDS students respond differently in various situations. They need some hands-on activities/items to reduce stimulation. It is a long process, but the students will make remarkable progress when we provide different sensory items. I am looking for some people who can fund our project for the betterment of our students.
