My Project

I am an Everyday Arts Special Education (EASE) teacher. I work in an elementary (Kindergarten- grade 2) setting with students with severe disabilities. Working as the EASE I am honored to work with the whole school. The students are lovely and beginning to learn their hidden talents.

These supplies will help us start the year as we will be learning a combination of the arts, including visual arts, movement, music, and sensory crafts.

Supplies such as adaptive scissors will help students that struggle with fine motor skills be able to hold the scissors with limited support. Another important supply being requested is laminate paper and velcro. These supplies allow me to make learning games the whole school can use.

Please support my classroom. My students and I will greatly appreciate these supplies.
