As a special education educator, scholars enter my classroom with different abilities and needs which means that they require differential instruction. Differential instruction may look like lots of movement, song, writing in the sand, using crayons instead of a pencil, using pencil grips to assist in holding an item, touchscreen electronics for lessons due to a decrease in motor abilities, increasing font size due to being visually impaired, and the list goes on. I love going above and beyond for my scholars and families because I know they are able to do more than they are often given credit for. In order to create interactive lessons and materials we must raise money to purchase the items requested. These items will help I will always be the voice for my scholars as they are learning to use their own. Any and all donations are a blessing and very much appreciated. Even if this project is not fully funded I thank you in advance.
