Help Give The Gift of Learning to Special Education!

Help me give my students the gift of technology in my Special Day Classroom for 1st-4th graders. We desperately need headphones to cut outside noises as they focus on learning through their Chromebooks.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My SDC students crave learning new things, and technology has been a way I've tried to use to help. However, we have no headphones for them to focus on their individual tasks on the computer so they are not able to focus easily. Having headphones would be a game changer for them!

I also would love to be able to bring more technology to them through iPads like they see their General Ed peers using.

With headphones and iPads my students can research and learn more, with less outside distractions.
