When the materials arrived, the excitement was clear—even though my students are not verbal,, their faces lit up, and many clapped, smiled, and reached eagerly for the new items. It was a beautiful moment that showed just how much your generosity meant to them.\r\n\r\nSince then, we've been using the new resources in hands-on activities that support sensory learning and communication skills. One favorite project involved exploring textures, sounds, and visuals to help students engage with their environment in meaningful ways. The tools have helped create more interactive lessons and given students new ways to connect with the world around them.\r\n\r\nWe're now moving into a new unit focused on building everyday life skills through sensory play and structured activities. Thanks to your support, we have the materials we need to keep learning fun, engaging, and accessible for every student in the room.
