Students will have so many feelings coming back to school!!! This project will allow students to have their own sensory tools, that will not be shared, to help them self-regulate and focus across the school day as we go back to in person learning. They will use Hoberman Spheres to practice mindful breathing. Thera-putty and kinetic sand will be used for self calming strategies and meaningful breaks from structured learning times. Wobble stools and hand held fidget tools will help students as they rebuild their endurance to stay engaged in academic instruction. These sensory tools will be invaluable to help students manage their bodies and minds through this transition and throughout our school year!
