Our seasons are beautiful, full of vibrant color and texture. Recently my class was learning the different seasons and how they change. My autistic students require many visual supports to link abstract thought to concrete vocabulary. Color printing was necessary to develop the laminated cards needed to review at home, and school. In order to print these cards in color I had two choices. First option, send the link to the administration building and wait, possibly 2-3 days for the return of my project through school mail. My second option required I send my project to the my building's office. Again I could wait for the school secretary to open her email, print, and then return my project to me. She is often very busy and as I soon learned the printer was out of ink. My students also require visual schedules to assist with emotional regulation in planning their day. A printer is invaluable in making these materials vibrant, textured and visually appealing. Thank you for considering my children's needs.
