Sensory Support and Regulation

Funded Feb 28, 2025

I am so excited to share the incredible impact your generous contributions have had on our classroom through the addition of sensory floor tiles in our calm corners. These resources have truly transformed our learning environment and provided immense benefits to our students.

The sensory floor tiles have become an integral part of our calm corners. We have designated specific areas in our "calm corners," where students can go to self-regulate and manage their emotions. These tiles offer a tactile and visual experience that helps students focus and calm down. One specific project we recently completed involved a "Mindfulness Pathway," where students followed a sequence of tiles while practicing deep breathing and mindfulness exercises. This activity has been incredibly effective in helping students transition between activities and reduce anxiety.

When the students first saw the sensory floor tiles, their excitement was palpable. They were immediately drawn to the vibrant colors and unique textures. Many students couldn't wait to explore and interact with the tiles, and it was heartwarming to see their faces light up with curiosity and joy. One student exclaimed, "This is the coolest thing ever!" while another mentioned how the tiles made them feel "calm and happy."

Your support has made a significant difference in our classroom, and we are deeply grateful for your generosity. We look forward to sharing more updates and successes with you in the future.”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Corr
