Supporting Success in Special Education

Help me give my students hands-on tools and sensory supports to create an engaging, inclusive classroom where my 4th and 5th graders can learn, grow, and thrive every day.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Davis's classroom raised $357

This project is fully funded

My Project

I love how curious, creative, and resilient my students are. As 4th and 5th grade special education learners, they each have unique strengths, needs, and learning styles. What makes them shine is their determination and joy when given the right tools and support. The resources in this project—like sensory tools, hands-on materials, and organizational supports—will help them regulate their emotions, stay engaged, and access learning in ways that work best for them. These materials will create a more inclusive, structured, and joyful classroom where every student can grow academically, socially, and emotionally at their own pace.
