My Project

My students are very sensory responsive and sometimes sitting in a loud classroom with lots of input makes learning very difficult. Having sensory/fidget toys has been very helpful for us and we want to help other students in our school. By having the requested items 3D printer, filament, and accessory tools, the students will be able to create tools to provide other students with more comfort and less stress to achieve their daily routines.

Having the opportunity to escape an overwhelming scenario will hopefully lead to a happier and more comfortable learning environment.

I believe that just like the current supplemental material, these items can be used in all our classroom areas.

My students will have the opportunity to use tools to help them with their sensory input and succeed in their academic work. These materials will help my students relax and concentrate on all their activities during the course of the day.
