Help Special Needs Preschoolers Learn Safely!

Help me give my students the opportunity to learn through play both at home and remote by creating individual bundles to help keep everyone safe. The iPad is needed now that we cannot collect/share paper.

My Students

I work with special education and general education preschoolers. I work with these students individually, in small groups and during whole group lessons with their classroom teachers.

My students have various speech and language disabilities that impact their ability to communicate.

Some of my students are completely nonverbal and rely on pointing/gesturing and crying to tell me their wants and needs. As you can imagine this can be extremely frustrating for these little learners, it also makes it difficult for them to participate during the school day.

My students range from age 2-4. I work with a team to best support their education. I believe in learning through play, especially with these young learners. Not only do my students love to play, they love dancing to music, reading books and any interactive technology that is available to them.

My Project

My special needs preschoolers will use these materials to learn through play both at home and in-person. Individual learning bundles will be created and either kept at school or sent home to keep everyone safe.

The majority of my students are nonverbal and rely on laminated core boards to communicate that will be created individually and sent home.

They are developmentally delayed and need appropriate toys to help them play, learn, explore and communicate.

The iPad will reduce the use of paper materials which are no longer allowed and can easily be wiped between students.
