My Project

My students are bright, creative, and eager to learn, but many benefit from additional support to stay focused, organized, and engaged. This project will provide essential sensory tools, visual schedules, and organizational supplies that will make a meaningful difference in their daily learning experiences.

I aim to create an inclusive, structured, supportive environment where students feel empowered to learn, express themselves, and succeed.

Sensory toys, anxiety-relief stickers, and tactile boards will help students regulate emotions, reduce stress, and stay calm and focused. Visual schedules, communication cards, and behavior keyrings will support understanding routines and encourage independence, especially for students with autism and other developmental needs. Organizational tools like a classroom timer, label maker, and storage pouches will streamline our day, keeping materials accessible and lessons running smoothly. Basic supplies like colored paper, pencils, and Velcro dots will enhance creative projects and daily tasks.

These resources will help foster independence, encourage engagement, and build confidence, ensuring that each child has the tools to thrive.
