My Project

Sensory learning, science, and classroom supports are crucial in helping students with special education needs, English language learners, and those in Title One schools thrive. By engaging students' senses, these activities create hands-on, interactive experiences that make learning more accessible and meaningful. Sensory tools, like tactile materials and visual aids, help reinforce concepts, while science exploration sparks curiosity and supports language development. These inclusive strategies offer personalized support, allowing all students to connect with the material in a way that suits their unique learning styles, fostering both academic growth and confidence.
