My Project

The beginning of the school year can be very exciting and stressful at the same time for my young English Learner students. This year has been especially more stressful because our old school is being repaired and the students are attending classes at a swing site. Things look different here and that adds to the amount of stress for my young students. For this project, I am requesting two different kinds of sensory toys, the mini push pops and the fidget toys, for my students to use in and out of the classroom.

These sensory fidget toys have a calming effect and will help the students go through the beginning of the school year stress free.

This way they can focus more on learning and making new friends.
