  • Engaging Resources!

    Funded Jun 22, 2021

    I am so grateful for your support. Thank you for your very generous donation! Teachers pay teachers is an amazing website filled with great resources for students. This donation will allow me to access extra materials to supplement my lessons.

    I spend a lot of my time adapting the curriculum to help my students to meet their goals on their Individualized Education Program. These TPT gift cards are very helpful to me with differentiating my instruction to fit my student needs.

    With you help, I was able to purchase many adapted books and special education resources that I have already begun using in my classroom. I appreciate all your help in making a difference for my students.”

  • The Right Tool!

    Funded Jul 15, 2021

    Thank you for your generous donation to my project, "The Right Tool". My students and I have enjoyed reading and looking through the many stories that you have provided. All of the books that I had requested, were purposely picked to help support students and their social emotional needs.

    The past two years have been tough on our kiddos. There is so much going on in the world around them that isn't always the norm. It's important to think about kids as a whole person, not just as a student. The books that were purchased have been a great way to help my students make connections to the world around them and to their feelings.

    I appreciate all of your kindness and generosity in helping to support my student social and emotional needs. It is people like you that help make a difference in the lives of children.”

  • Feel Good Snacks!

    Funded May 7, 2021

    Thank you so much for your generosity in supporting my project, "Feel Good Snacks".

    These snacks provided great motivation for students. Positive reinforcement is very important for many of my students as they complete their work and these snacks have been a great means to provide that reinforcement.

    I have many students who work and respond well to ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis). During ABA, a behavior is picked as a target and students will complete their work while they work toward a goal. Many of the snacks that I picked for this project were chosen based on particular students in mind. I can't describe to you how happy it makes my students to see their favorite motivation waiting for them as they complete their work.

    For my students that don't need ABA, these treats made for great prizes for them to pick for their hard work at the end of a period. Thank you again for you support; you have helped in making my students days a little brighter and my work, a little easier.”

  • Earning That Prize!

    Funded May 4, 2021

    Thank you again for your generous donations. These prizes are such a great incentive for my kiddos. My population of students truly deserve all the positive reinforcement in all the things they achieve through out the day! These prizes help motivate them when they accomplish all science tasks whether it is cutting, pasting or completing an activity. Being a good listener, making eye contact, following directions are also rewarded in my room. Thank you so much for your on going support to NYC students!”

I am beginning my first year as the STEM teacher for my building and will be teaching students in grades K-5. My students live throughout the borough of the Bronx and have Autism Spectrum Disorder. Our school is part of New York City's District 75, which provides specialized instruction and support for students with significant challenges. Our students are eager to learn and explore and I look forward to seeing their faces light up when they are introduced to new topics or hands-on activities! My students succeed best when they are provided with a well managed and structured environment, that's full of love and support for their individual needs. When provided with a well rounded education including visual, auditory, tactile and technology opportunities, my students will continue to grow and achieve success!
