The materials I am requesting are all resources to help my students obtain solid life and functional skills. I am focusing on having my kiddos ready to go out in the community on a more consistent basis, but there are still many things we need to work on! Some of my students still have difficulty understanding community basics or even being able to verbalize their address, etc. Life skills aren't the only things I am trying to reinforce, I am also trying to teach my students how to comfortable and feel safe. Hence why I am also asking for the pillows. I am trying to provide flexible seating in the small space I have to enable my students to learn the best they can and allow them to perform. The whiteboard desk would be an excellent addition to the room for a math station when I am doing math activities!
