Sensory Exploration

Help me give my students sensory toys to help them explore their senses.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bukhman's classroom raised $501

My Project

My students are amazing! They are eager to learn and participate in new activities, however they often have difficulty paying attention and have many sensory needs that I address throughout the day.

My students are 5 to 14 years old but are all functioning at a preschool level academically.

All of my students have limited social skills and have significant language deficits in expressive, receptive, and pragmatic language skills. They need games and manipulatives to help engage them in learning and increasing language skills. I am also requesting Ziplock bags for students to store the fidgets that they can keep in their desks.

I am requesting sensory toys that will be used to increase my students visual and tactile experience to help them stay calm and engaged. I am requesting hands on games like Azul that will help my students practice the skills we learn in lessons during less structured situations.

Ms. Bukhman PS 36K Grades 3-5
