Help me give my students the chair bands and calming strips and other tools they need to learn how to refocus and learn to play with peers and attend in the classroom.

My Project
Help my students learn how to self calm and refocus in and out of the classroom by teaching them the sensory regulation tools and tricks they need to succeed. Most of my special education students have little to no access to age appropriate toys or games at home and come to school as new little learners, eager to participate but do not know how to do so in an age appropriate manner. With these new tools they will have a better chance at succeeding in and out of their classrooms and at home with their peers.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
