Severe Disability Sensory Buckets

Help me give my students with severe disabilities these sensory buckets to help calm them.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. S.'s classroom raised $1,133

This project is fully funded

My Students

I have 10 kids in the class with different degrees of needs. I have four that talk and other students that are trying to talk. These students are wonderful to be around. I want them to get the best education as possible. I love coming into class and seeing all their smiling faces. One boy has amazing laugh that makes me star to laugh with him. He does not talk but I know what he needs, he make sure I know. I love the kids.

My Project

The sensory buckets will help my severe students who has autism, down syndrome, development delayed, and other disabilities to calm down or focus more. Each bucket will have different items inside that my students can figure out which one works best for them. I love to have options because each student has his or her own likes and dislikes. Plus one buckets may work one day and not the next day. With special ed students choices can make the difference in how his or her day goes. Thank you so much.
