Cool Tools for Tonoff's Kids

My students need alternative seating and fidget tools to help with unwanted behaviors and sensory needs.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tonoff's classroom raised $270

This project is fully funded

My Students

Our school is starting a Social Emotional Learning program that will help students with autism and social emotional needs learn proper social, coping, goal setting, and executive functioning skills.

We have unique students who will need love and support when going through the crazy transition of junior high!

Our students are fun, smart and caring individuals who want to succeed in school, but need extra supports to achieve that success in their general education classrooms. We are hoping our new SEL program will give them the tools they need!

My Project

Our students will use these tools to help replace unwanted behaviors in the classroom.

My goals is for them to use these seating options and fidgets for sensory input so they can focus on their academic tasks.

These tools will also be used to assist students with coping in new/uncomfortable situations.

Their "homebase" classroom will be a safe place for them to come to during the day where they can use these tools to reset and prepare for the rest of their day.

I want students to feel at home in this classroom and have tools available to them to help them be successful.
