My Students

I am an occupational therapist who works with students in an elementary school with various abilities! The students I work with strive to do their best with achieving their school-related goals. They are energetic and love to be involved with hands-on activities. They love being involved with creating their goals and trying their best to achieve them.

My Project

Remaining seated and still during the school day is very difficult for many students. Difficulties with remaining still may impact the student's comfort level and ability to learn. Introducing and teaching students to use sensory tools during their school day can help them remain focused and learn more information.

By donating to this sensory project, you can help several students by giving them the ability to use sensory tools so they can regulate themselves and sustain attention during their academic learning activities.

These fidgets and flexible seating can also be shared with other students to help them learn as well.
