My Project

Our special education classroom serves students with diverse learning needs, including those with sensory processing disorders, communication challenges, and fine motor difficulties. To better support these students, we are seeking to enhance our classroom with various resources. These include sensory toys to help with focus, flexible seating, adaptive technology to assist with learning, and specialized materials to make lessons more accessible.

Your support will directly impact our students by providing them with the tools they need to succeed and feel comfortable in their learning environment.

With these materials, we can offer a more personalized and effective educational experience, helping our students to achieve their full potential.
