My Project

The materials requested will help me to create a sensory space for students with exceptionalities from preschool through fourth grade. Students will have access to sensory books, calming bubble lamps, sensory panels and a comfortable blow up couch for them to be able to decompress on.

Sensory input and regulation is extremely important for students on the autism spectrum and having a space that can fulfill those sensory needs is vital.

The space will also be open to other students who just need a sensory break or a quiet space to refocus.
