My Project

Sensory tools are essential in the classroom as they support the diverse sensory needs of students, fostering a conducive learning environment for all. These tools encompass a wide range of resources such as fidgets, noise-canceling headphones, and textured materials, which help students regulate their sensory experiences. For students with sensory processing challenges, these tools provide invaluable support, allowing them to stay focused, engage effectively in learning activities, and manage sensory overload or anxiety. By accommodating various sensory preferences, I can create an inclusive classroom where every student can thrive and reach their full potential academically, emotionally, and socially.
