My Project

With a classroom of extra special teenagers, we need your help to help these precious students! We would like to build task learning bags for our students that will help them increase their fine motor skills, increase their number awareness, increase their reading abilities, engage in social skills and work on pre-writing activities.

With a range of diagnosis and a vast range of ability levels, these busy bags will be developed specific for individual students' levels and needs.

The students in this class are the most special treasures you'll ever find! I would love to see them engaged in activities that are developed just for them! These bags will equip our students to become the best they can become!
