My Project

The materials I have requested will allow the students to have access to sensory play. The sensory table and fillers will promote the development of fine motor skills, problem-solving, and brain development. These types of activities help to stimulate student's senses such as touch, sight, hearing, and smell. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus but you will ultimately help give them a chance to learn literacy/math skills through play.

The sensory table will be filled with literacy and math activities that allow the children to learn through play.

Students will have access to the sensory table during our reading and math rotations. While working with these supplies the children will be actively engaged in building both their literacy/math and fine motor skills. Help me create an environment that encourages my students to learn, play, and create, while also meeting their sensory needs!
