Having enough sensory items help minimize anxiety and eliminate potential disruptive behaviors.\r\nThe sensory timers have been incredibly helpful to motivate a few of my students to complete their independent work. I have been using the squishy balls to help 2 of my students to use hands appropriately. One of my students hit his head quite often and to prevent this, I have him hold a squishy ball. This has decreased his behavior. Another student put fingers in his mouth and to prevent this I have him hold a squishy ball to keep his fingers busy. These are few of the examples of how the items have been used in my classroom. Thank you so much for making a positive diference in the life of my students with your generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1733332345022,"projectUrl":"project/stress-relievers/8704978/","projectTitle":"Stress Relievers!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rajan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9101490_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713491653197","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9101490"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_72547","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":643,"numTeachers":51,"percentFrplEligible":40,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":28,"percentWhite":27,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":35,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.9,"schoolId":72547,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Royal Palm Beach Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Royal Palm Beach Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/palm-beach-county-public-schools/royal-palm-beach-elementary-school/72547"}
