My Students

I teach 6 children with autism; we are located in Brownsville Brooklyn. They are all taught in an Applied Behavior Analysis classroom. Any help is appreciated. The students are low on the spectrum and can use lots of puzzles and sorting activities to help them grown and learn.

"To the world, you may be one person; to one person, you may be the world." Dr. Seuss.

Any amount can help our classroom. The children will use fine motor scissors to help grab and sort items. The sits will help them stay in there stations during assessments. These seats can also be used during morning circle time.

Magnetic Color Maze , scoop a bug sorting kit, fine motor scissor scoops to help us learn how to control our hands. Reusable write and wipe pockets will help with fundations. Wooden bed puzzles and magnetic peg puzzles will help with math. The printer is a key component to help prone out visuals for the students.

My Project

If funded we will have new toys and lots of fun everyday. The students are mostly non verbal and learn through discrete trials. They all communicate using a pec ( picture system.) Many of these children come from low income families. They are trying their best but always need extra support. The families and teachers work together to ensure these students are getting the best education that they can. All supplies will be used to help the children gain the skills and independence they will need in the future. No donation is to small. I appreciate the help. Thanks everyone.
