My Project

I teach special education with students ranging in age from 14-20 years old. Most fall on the autism spectrum disorder with high sensory needs. They are such incredible students who face difficult challenges everyday with incredible courage.

We need these items in order to create a space where our students are able to go to fulfill their sensory needs so that they are able to learn.

Having these items likek fidgets and more will help to create a classroom environment where the students' needs are met, and they are able to engage and learn.
