Sensory Magic: Help Us Stock Up on Essential Classroom Tools!

Help me give my students essential materials that foster social-emotional learning by creating a break area (bean bag, rug, plants) with calming tools and collaborative games. We can also use materials to keep us organized (storage drawers, laminating kit).

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We’re excited to submit our project to enhance our classroom with essential sensory materials! By donating to our cause, you will help us acquire items like interactive fidget tools and cooperative games. These materials will provide our students with valuable sensory experiences that promote focus, reduce anxiety, and support emotional regulation.

Our students are a diverse and vibrant group, each with unique needs and strengths.

Your support will empower us to meet their individual needs and foster a more inclusive and productive learning atmosphere.

Additionally, we need an ergonomic desk chair and storage bins for organizing supplies. The desk chair will ensure that our teacher can work comfortably, while the storage bins will keep materials neatly arranged, reducing clutter and making resources more accessible for students. Our goal is to create a well-organized and supportive learning environment where every student can thrive.

Thank you for helping us make a meaningful impact on their educational journey!
