My Project

Sensory and hands-on tools allow children to explore their world through their senses. They play an important part in any learning experience. Young students learn best when they can touch and feel something and sensory play provides opportunities for children to learn about the world around them in many meaningful ways.

When kids can see, smell, touch, and even hear something – the learning experience is more meaningful to them.

Your donation will provide my students with center materials and storage. We will use the laminator and sheets to make centers that will last. My older students love putting puzzles together when they have a few extra minutes or need a brain break.
