My Project

Aloha,

I am a special education teacher in Maui seeking items to help support my students's sensory needs.

I teach students with communication and sensory needs and we are seeking items to help support my students academic and social and emotional growth.

The rug will be used as an area to meet to support social growth and to do academics. The sensory light, bubble fountain, and beanbag chair will be used as a sensory area within the classroom.

My students are kind and wonderful and this project would help to create an enrichment environment.

Thank you,

Kattie

Ms. Thammas Waihe'e Elementary School Grades PreK-2
