Super Sensory

Help me give my students with disabilities developmentally appropriate sensory toys for learning!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kim's classroom raised $183

My Project

My classroom of students with intellectual disabilities needs sensory toys! We have recently brought in a new student who is learning to track colors, lights, and sounds with her eyes. We are currently missing developmentally appropriate sensory toys for her and our other students. The lights, colors, and noises will help them learn categories and positions by creating combinations like soft/green or shiny/red. My students will learn to describe where and what with these toys. I'm excited to implement more sensory stimulation in my lessons and hope you'll donate to our cause!
