Ms. Meyana from Springfield OR is requesting educational kits & games through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Relax, De-stress, Create…

Help me give my students some tools to build with creativity, as well as ways to rest or destress while learning coping strategies. At times, our students struggle with emotional dysregulation and would benefit from sensory and relaxation.

My Project

Having tools for relaxing and de-stressing would benefit students that struggle with emotional dyregulation. For example, the resting mats and the sensory weighted shoulder wrap will encourage listening to our bodies and knowing what helps us feel better when we get upset. The hygienic folding resting mat will be a visuallly concrete way for students to be able to get what they need when they are feeling overwhelmed or upset.

Creativity is highly encouraged in our classroom to build confidence skills and foster independence.

The jumbo magnetic building tiles will be used to enhance these skills and get students doing hands on activities they are highly interested in.

My students are all very special, and are all in some way delayed in communication, verbal or socialization skills. They are inquisitive and benefit from these sorts of hands on activities that will promote problem solving and interaction with other peers.
