Under the Sea: K-1

Help me give my students a more sensory-friendly room with fluorescent light covers, sensory tubes, fidget toys, and a beanbag chair that will make their time in the classroom more productive and comfortable.

My Project

The lights in our classroom are currently very bright for our students who may have sensory defensiveness. The under-the-sea light covers I am requesting will take away the bright lights, and provide a more calming environment for student learning.

The fidget items such as the sensory tubes and sensory slugs will be used when students need to reset before continuing to work.

The bean bag chair will also provide students with a space to relax and unwind after completing their work. They can also sit in the beanbag chair and read. All of these items will give students the "sensory reset break" they might need after completing work or attending classes with their peers. Our students appreciate all of you, and we thank you!
