Sensory Fidget Toys Embrace Learning

Help me give my students stress sensory toys to help with their stress and fidgeting with learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Vang's classroom raised $248

This project is fully funded

My Project

I have the smartest stars in kinderland. My stars are smart and sweet, but sometimes they lose focus and get distracted by the things that surrounded them. These stars need fidget toys to help sustain them. I believe that the use of these sensory fidget toys will help my stars to stay focused. Some of my stars can't keep their hands to themselves. Some like to touch their friends at carpet during whole group learning time. I think by having these sensory fidget toys, it can calm my stars to keep their hands in place. The fidget toys allow students to keep their eyes on me so they are fully present and engaged. Also, their minds will stay focused at the carpet. They will not be trying to find objects around them or touch their friends. It will alleviate distractions from these 5 and 6 year- olds.

By donating to this project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

By having sensory fidget toys, students will be able to concentrate and focus on their learning!
