My Project

Our students benefit greatly from movement and sensory-based activities to support regulation, focus, and participation in learning. I am seeking sensory gym equipment such as a yoga ball, balance tools, and textured paths to help meet these needs.

These tools promote motor skills, body awareness, and calming input for students with sensory processing challenges.

With your support, we can create a safe and engaging space where students can explore, move, and thrive. This equipment will make a lasting difference in helping our learners succeed both in and out of the classroom.
