My Project

I work with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers who all have special and unique needs. These materials are essential in helping me to teach these young children the social skills that they will need to possess to be successful all through school and the rest of their adult lives. The sensory tools will help my support my students both in and out of the classroom. We learn problem-solving skills, how to express our feelings, new ways to calm down, how to take turns and share, and how to be a good friend. Young children learn through play and new toys will help keep my kids actively engaged because they are exciting and fun!
