My Project

Bonlee Dragons are some of the most loving kids you will ever meet. I am working on setting up a sensory corner in a special education classroom for students who need a safe place. Each child deserves to be able to succeed in their own way. Working with students has been my passion in life.

Help me show ALL kids that they can succeed in the school setting.

The items in this project will go towards creating a sensory/calm down corner in one of the special education classrooms. It will allow our students a place to feel safe and to be able to regulate their emotions.

The light covers will tone down some of the light while the sensory tiles will be placed on the floor to help students help self regulate. The magna tiles are used to help students work together with partners to create items.
