Help me give my students tabletop toys and tools to learn and grow!

My Project
The swings and weighted stuffed animals will help my students to become regulated before they come to the table to play and work. Hole punches are a hugely motivating tool for my students -- they are enchanted by the magic of the instant shapes and don't even realize that they are strengthening their hands! We might play with the magnetic puzzle, drawing on the attached dry erase and chalkboard. This play helps students to develop visual motor skills that they will use in the classroom.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
