Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Help provide our students with a sensory path to help reduce sensory-seeking behaviors.

This beautiful sensory path will be utilized by all students when needed.

It is designed to change the child's body position as they complete the course, focusing on academic visuals while moving the body in a specific order. As a child moves through the path, the body movements slow down or speed up, working towards giving the proper sensory input without overstimulating the student. The path is designed using research-based sensory integration therapy techniques to decrease sensory-seeking behaviors and increase cognition.

Your generous donation will support students by providing them with tools to ensure success in their school day.
