My Project
Students with sensory sensitivities need fidgets, toys, and equipment that will help keep them calm. The laminator will be used to create materials adaptive to these special needs non-verbal kids. Though on the spectrum, these kids are quite capable of doing curriculum work and have to be taught at their various grade levels or slightly below.
Children with autism will become adults with autism and have to be prepared for the world they have been born into.
As such, the children must have functional and adaptive skills.
More than half of students from low‑income households
