My Project
By helping me as a special education teacher supply my scholars with a more sensory-friendly classroom environment, you will assist them in entering a space where they can more comfortably engage in the hard work of learning. My scholars, kindergarten through sixth grade, show up and try their best every day, but we have few sensory-friendly and comforting supplies for our classroom. This will enable me to share a space with students where they can come for breaks (sensory breaks, time out from a stressful situation, a safe space to calm and regroup) for any student in need, not just my resource room scholars!
I hope to demonstrate to my little scholars that our community cares and is invested in seeing them succeed just like I am!
While I have only been working with them for a few weeks, they have already stolen my heart! I want to provide them with alternative seating, fidgets, sensory-friendly tools, and a noise dampening rug so that they are better able to focus on learning opportunities. Nearly all of the students in our building fall below the poverty line, and the warmth, comfort, learning opportunities, and life lessons we provide for them here are vital! So, please, help my special education students have a more inclusive environment that they can thrive in and take pride in daily! Thank you!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
