My Project
My amazing students are bright, creative, and full of potential. Each of them has unique sensory and emotional needs that can make focusing in a traditional classroom setting challenging. The sensory tools and materials requested in this project—such as fidget items, a motion bubbler, games, and textured beanbags—are more than just classroom supplies; they are essential supports that help my students regulate their emotions, manage sensory input, and feel safe and calm during instruction.
By helping my students meet their sensory needs, these items will allow them to stay focused, reduce anxiety, and engage more fully in academic tasks.
My goal is to create a learning environment where every child can thrive, regardless of their challenges. These tools will support their growth in independence, emotional regulation, and academic success.
What makes my students special is their resilience, their big hearts, and the joy they bring to the classroom each day. With your support, I can provide the tools they need to feel confident, comfortable, and ready to learn.
More than half of students from low‑income households
