My Project

This sensory and adaptive equipment will allow my students to grow and thrive within their school environment. Students with disabilities often require specialized tools to support sensory regulation, communication, mobility, and independence. By providing access to appropriate adaptive and sensory resources, students will be able to engage in learning, classroom activities, and develop the skills necessary for success within their school environment. These supports create a more inclusive environment where all students can feel safe, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential! My goal is to provide my students with the supports they need so they can achieve their Individualized Education Plan goals!
