Sensory Incentives to Motivate My Students Do Their Best

Help me give my students incentives to do their best! My special needs students work so hard to achieve their personal learning goals, and the stickers, sensory toys, and tablets will help my students get motivated.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Laura Sierra's classroom raised $313

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I refer to my students as my kids because they are. I strive every day to instill a sense of pride in my students. The stickers, LCD writing tablets, and sensory fidget toys will help them stay motivated to achieve their best. My students never give up and always work hard to achieve their personal learning goals. Although my goal is to teach them all they need to be successful, it can be difficult to motivate my students. Every little bit of help is appreciated and welcomed. Thank you all for your consideration.
