This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The items I am requesting for my students will help to provide sensory input through tactile stimulation. This will help to regulate and manage sensory sensitivities and improve focus and behavior by delivering a predictable and controlled sensory experience.
Vibrations can act as a calming input which can help for managing sensory overload or under-responsiveness common in ASD.
Vibrations can also provide proprioceptive feebdack, which is important for body awareness and motor coordination.
Providing a calm classroom can help to reinforce self-regulation and attention skills. Having access to the vibration pad when stressed can be a great tool in helping them to relax and relieve periods of irritability and anxiety.
Nearly all 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
