My Students

My Students

My students are amazing!

They are eager to learn and participate in new activities, however lack of experiences and materials will hold them back. They have a difficult time connecting with traditional books and need books adapted.

My students are 13 to 20 years old but are all functioning on preschool/elementary school level academically.

All of my students have limited social skills and have significant language deficit in expressive, receptive, and pragmatic language skills. My students are often frustrated because they cannot communicate their needs and wants. Many times they struggle to keep up with the other students because they do not speak and cannot participate in the same ways. I work tremendously hard to expose them to as many experiences within my means, however this is getting harder and harder.

My students are diagnosed with intellectual disability and autism. They learn and respond positively to curriculum that is visual, kinesthetic and allows them to practice their skills repeatedly.

My Project

I am requesting hook and loop Velcro dots, laminating sheets, and a binding machine that will be used to construct book with illustrations and symbols to help students understand the contents of the curriculum. My students will learn to match words and pictures in age appropriate books through their day to help improve their vocational skills that they will need to carry out functional activities in their futures.

Your donation will make a significant impact in the lives of the students I work with by providing them with something they haven't yet been able to master, but it is their right to be able to access age appropriate reading materials within their school environment.

With your help, My students will be able to access the curriculum that they deserve.
