My Students

I am a Special Education Resource Specialist Teacher and I support my amazing and creative kiddos across many different classrooms in kindergarten to fifth grade! My passion is in building a community and safe place for students to learn and grow their skills.

My students live in an area of highest poverty in town and 100% of the students at our school receive a free lunch.

Despite these challenges, my students are amazing kids! My students are spread out in different classrooms, so I will need a variety of basic supplies to support their learning needs.

My students' situation can be very challenging and we need many additional resources to supplement the severe lack of funding and opportunities my students deserve to have.

My Project

My students have spent a year at home and they are finally back in the classroom and ready to work! They need a lot of work with fun manipulatives to get their bodies and brains working together to learn how to read and write.

My kiddos are all young and have special needs and hands on learning materials will help them recoup their learning losses in a fun and efficient way.

Kids love to play and learn at the same time!

Please help my kiddos get the hands on skills practice they need to learn how to read, write, and do math :)
