Please Help Us Calm Down and Get Back to Class

Help me give my students a spinner for sensory needs. My students need some help calming and a snack before going back to class.

My Project

I have many kids with sensory needs. These are little guys that escalate throughout the day. They come to my room and try to spin in my chairs which have then fallen over with the kids on them. They need a safe way to meet their needs and could use your help! I added some snack as well to give these guys a full tummy before heading back to class!

My students are amazing kids that just need a little more movement and sensory to be successful in their day.
