My Project

Many of my students need a more non-traditional approach to learning, which includes a lot of sensory input and different tactile materials.

Learning should always be inclusive!

Supporting this project will send sensory supplies to my special needs students so they can grow, explore, learn and thrive in their daily lives and education. Sometimes you need to think outside of the box to meet your students diverse needs, and sensory toys and materials are a game changer for them! These non-traditional classroom items will make a world of difference for my little ones!
