My Project

I teach students in grades 7 and 8 with individual learning needs. My students all have IEPs. Some have a very short attention span and need frequent breaks. I will use the kinetic sand to give my students a break between academic tasks. The tools and journals will also allow them to increase their fine motor skills while they are building academic resilience.

These added supplies for my classroom will allow students to have a break and then return to task to continue learning.

It will be super helpful for my classroom each day.
