These supplies made a great difference in students behavior and learning in my classroom. The students' favorite item was the water. They expressed that the bottle water was exactly what they needed to reduce their anxiety, refresh their brain, and refocus on math. Another favorite item was the motivational stickers. Many of the students placed it on their phone and their backpack. The floor pillows and the pop bubble sensory toys were used daily. \r\nAgain, thank you for your support.
