Sensory Stimulation

Please help me give my students sensory materials like kinetic sand and fun foam. These are great for our sand play, and we use fun foam to learn how to form letters and shapes.

My Project

My Pre k class is so special because they are always eager to try new things. They are always excited about new materials. We are learning how to form letters and numbers. The fun foam will help us do that in a fun way.

At times, we need a quiet place to retreat with the pop up tents.

We all experience big emotions and this pop up tent will be a place to go for calming down. Sensory stimulation like pluffle and kinetic sand are also a great sensory experience. We will use these in our sensory bins along with other materials related to our unit.
