Sensory and Manipulatives for Students to Learn Successfully

Help me give my students sensory items and manipulatives that will enhance their learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Pe'a's classroom raised $1,060

This project is fully funded

My Project

The materials in this project will help support students with disabilities. Educational manipulatives are great tools to teach students in a hands-on way. These manipulatives will allow students with learning disabilities to access higher level curriculum.

Social-emotional games will teach students coping skills and will help students self-regulate their emotions.

This will provide a fun way for students to learn necessary skills.

Help provide a variety of hands-on and engaging materials for a class of students with disabilities including autism and cognitive delays. Your contribution is greatly appreciated.
