Squish, Create & Learn: Play-Doh for Sensory Success

Help me give my students the sensory input they need through hands-on play with Play-Doh and accessories that encourage creativity, fine-motor development, and self-regulation.

My Project

I love how unique, joyful, and determined my students are. Each student brings their own personality, strengths, interests, and way of communicating to our classroom. My students learn best when they are actively engaged and have opportunities to explore materials in hands-on, meaningful ways. Play-Doh and sensory accessories will provide calming sensory input while also building fine-motor skills, hand strength, coordination, and creativity.

These materials can be used during structured learning activities, independent work, and sensory breaks.

They will help my students regulate their bodies, increase their ability to attend to instruction, and practice important skills in a fun and motivating way. Most importantly, these resources will give my students another positive way to explore, create, communicate, and enjoy learning.
