My Project

Thank you for your support. The items requested will help my students greatly. These items help to continue to create a safe and sensory accommodating space for my twice exceptional learners. It will help with cause and effect sensory needs, sound, and touch whether it is seating or learning math. My students are visual learners that love concrete items to help them explore the world around them. With these items I can continuously power the cause and effect games that help them learn and explore and use their imaginations. The seating will go in the library area while they enjoy books and the soothing fish tank, and hands on items will help them connect to learning.
