My Students

I am a New York City public school educator. I am a part of a district which is a cohort of many schools across our city and has the highest amount of special needs students. Our district is specifically designed to educate students with disabilities. My students have Autism and multiple disabilities. They are also economically disadvantaged. Our district works a 12-month program, so it is essential to have appropriate educational materials and curriculum to support them and meet their individualized learning needs.

I teach students with disabilities, and 100% of my students qualify for free and reduced-priced lunch.

Students often come to us with many struggles from home. I want their education to be fun and exciting. In District 75 many of our students are medically fragile and cannot attend school in person. Full remote learning is their only option, which can be difficult due to their disabilities.

My students are some of the most disadvantaged students in New York. I want to ensure that we can meet their needs and encourage their learning. My students deserve an education just like students who can attend school in person during this pandemic!

My Project

Currently my students are stuck in their homes. They have been since March. Unlike other students in New York City their families do not have a choice but to keep them home to learn. My students suffer from multiple disabilities and many of them are medically fragile. They cannot go out and play like other children and take the bus every day to school to learn. I want to ensure the materials I have for my students will meet all of their needs. There are not a plethora of digital resources available for my students that are free.

A gift card for TPT will provide quick & easy access to engaging differentiated standards- based lessons to enrich the students learning during distance learning.

TeachersPayTeachers (TPT) is an online store that provides high-quality materials created by teachers. TPT resources are aligned to the learning standards. They also will be differentiated to meet the needs of students with disabilities as well as they are visually appealing for maximum student engagement. My students will benefit from literacy and math resources from TPT. This gift card will allow me to get necessary digital resources to support all of my students. Thank you for all of your help supporting my students this year!
