Sensory and Writing Needs

Help me give my students magnetic tiles, fidget bands, and a new pencil sharpener!

My Project

This project will help my students with their sensory needs so that they will be able to better work at school. Many of my students have ASD and require items to help them focus and let out some of their "wiggles", and the stretchy resistance band that can be put on a chair will help with that! It is difficult for my students with physical needs to sharpen their own pencils with manual sharpeners. I want to provide them with an electric sharpener so that they can be more independent! My students enjoy building things, and they especially love magnet tiles, and I would love to provide them with more.
