Let's Keep the Happy Permanently in Their Cheeks!

Funded Mar 27, 2018

When my students first saw the new materials we received, they were ecstatic! They love using them every chance they have the opportunity. We use the iPad with one of our curriculums that helps promote the use of sensory through hands-on learning. They love to use the Ozmo to make shapes and challenge each other with building words or using the numbers portion. They have begged me to find more games they can use with the Ozmo! The bean bags provide flexible seating and the students can move the bean bags to a quiet place in the room to calm down when needed.

We have a new learning program called Lexia for my students. This program has an app that allows my students to sit wherever they want and work on reading skills through hands-on learning with Lexia. The students love the freedom to move about with no cords, thanks to the iPad! They love anything that looks like a game and helps them to learn. Special Education is all about what fits the learner!

My next step for the students in my classroom is to find more sensory and hands-on learning activities for them through the iPads and with Ozmo! My students really enjoy every wonderful thing that you have allowed us to have! We are so thankful for you funding our projects and many other projects for others!”

With gratitude,
