My Project
In the classroom, fostering an environment conducive to learning goes beyond delivering curriculum content; it involves understanding and addressing the diverse sensory needs of students. Every student possesses unique sensory preferences and sensitivities that influence their behavior and learning experiences. Some students may seek sensory input to regulate their emotions and attention, while others may become overwhelmed by certain stimuli, hindering their ability to concentrate and engage in learning activities. Meeting students' sensory needs plays a pivotal role in promoting self-regulation—the ability to manage emotions, behaviors, and impulses. Sensory activities such as deep pressure, adjustable lighting, comfortable seating options, and fidget tools can help students regulate their arousal levels, reducing stress and promoting a calm state conducive to learning.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
