My Project

Kindergarteners come in with varying life experiences, needs, and abilities. Sometimes, a full kindergarten classroom can be overwhelming for young learners. To support with that, sensory supplies, such as fidgets, squishy balls, sensory sand, water beads, and gel times can be very helpful.

Allowing students to work through tough situations with sensory supports is essential at all grade levels!

Having a refresh of these supplies in our calm down corner will be fantastic! When students are calm, they are able to better focus and then learn! When they feel safe and supported in their needs, they will flourish!
