Supporting Sensory Needs and Strengthening Fine Motor Skills
Help me give my students sensory toys to help calm them down and sensory snap beads to help them strengthen their fine motor skills.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ochoa's classroom raised $475
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
My students are special in so many ways. They are clever, funny, and unique in their own individual way. They are eager to learn and enjoy hands on activities. My collaborative classroom consists of students with Autism, Speech and/or Language Impairments, English Language Learners and typically developing. We are a unique bunch! My goal with this project is to provide my kiddos with a safe space to meet their sensory needs and strengthen their fine motor skills in the classroom.
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, but also help their academic development and strengthen their fine motor skills.
The Playdoh, Silly Foam, Foam Soap, and Sensory Sequin Flip Fabric will help support students' sensory needs, but also help them focus during large and small groups. The animal beads, busy board and Playdoh tool set will help strengthen their fine motor skills that will help them with writing and self-help skills like dressing and undressing themselves.
More than three‑quarters of 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
