Help me give my students tools to learn to self regulate in order to learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Daugherty's classroom raised $932

My Project

Schedules and routine are extremely important when it comes to students in special education. After COVID, students have had a hard time getting back into the school setting. More sensory needs and emotion regulation are coming into play. My students need sensory breaks and tools like the LIGHT CUBE and sensory lights to self regulate more than ever. The Tap & Play Color-Changing Light Center to help with sensory and motor skills, and Sony - ZX Series Wired On-Ear Headphones - White to access the new technology based education world, and Ultimate Ears - BOOM 3 Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with Waterproof/Dustproof Design for group audio activities. Supporting this project would mean I would be able to have a better equipped sensory room to support those needs, as well as Laugh-a-Lot Phonics Collection - 36 Book Set to make learning more engaging.These students need more help with these aspects of life, and I am here to help them learn and grow.
