My Project

My students are diverse learners who bring a variety of perspectives and learning styles to the classroom. In my classroom students benefit from a close-knit supportive community where they get individualized attention and encouragement.

The sensory items I am requesting for my students will provide a physical outlet for excess energy, helping students concentrate better.

They can calm students, reducing anxiety and stress.

The headphones will allow students to engage in audio content at their own pace and will support students with diverse needs. It also helps students become used to independently navigating digital tools and resources which is an essential skill in today's technology driven world.
