  • Make Sense of Sensory Tool!

    Funded Aug 27, 2022

    So very grateful for your generosity. There are no words to express our gratitude for your generosity. It could not have come at the most opportune time as well. Thank you for ensuring that the students with sensory sensitivities would be able to be provided with tools to help them regulate and access their learning space with comfort, just like their peers without sensory sensitivities. Know that your generosity will have a huge impact on the students. Thank you, thank you, and endless thank yous!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Cabigting

  • Adoption of Adapted Materials for Students With Autism

    Funded Dec 4, 2019

    Thank you very much for your support. The students who have fine-motor challenges are now able to complete projects in Math, ELA, Science, Social Studies, etc. by pointing to the correct answers and cutting and pasting those answers with the use of the adapted scissors. They are able to access and enjoy art projects because they can cut paper easier with these adapted scissors and hand weights.

    They can access academic programs (technology), like Imagine Learning to improve their vocabulary and language, using the headphones you have helped us purchase. They have all shown significant progress in Language and communication!! Some students are now able to color within the line and write their names legibly, with help from the hand weights. They can tolerate school-wide assemblies because they can use noise-canceling headphones to buffer loud noises.

    Thanks to all of you who have donated! You have made it possible for the students to engage and be included in various school-wide activities and express and represent their knowledge and understanding through multiple-means. They are so happy with all the materials! We are so very grateful for your generosity!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Cabigting

    This classroom project was brought to life by An anonymous classroom supporter and 8 other donors.
Students with Autism have different ways to express and represent their knowledge. They have various challenges with fine motor and gross motor skills that may impede how they are able to represent and express their knowledge. I would like to be able to make my classroom more universal and have adapted materials available for my students to use. Adaptive scissors will help my students be able to cut out paper independently when we do science and social studies projects. Some students have yet to develop the strength to be able to hold and write with a pencil. The weighted hand glove will not only help them strengthen their hand muscle but will give them the means to write their names, draw and write to show what they have learned, comprehended and what they want to communicate. We need heavy duty headphones so that each student may be able to access various computer programs that help them develop their reading and math skills while withstanding daily use. These adapted materials will ensure that we are providing my students with multiple ways to engage in different activities that neuro-typical peers are able to engage in. These will also provide them with opportunities to express and represent their knowledge and show the world how hard-working and smart they really are in spite of some barriers. Thank you!
