My Students

I am a middle school special education teacher. All our students are diagnosed with Autism. Our school is located within a community public school. Our students benefit from multi-sensory approaches.

Our students have a wide-variety of academic, emotional, and social needs.

They can benefit from lessons that are engaging and differentiated based upon skill level. Our students range from low functioning to high functioning. They communicate through picture exchange communication system (PECS), visuals, assistive technology, and expressive language as well as receptive language.

My Project

Our students benefit from hands-on learning. Technology gives them multiple opportunities to showcase their skills in a fun and engaging way. As a specialized program in a community school, we would greatly appreciate the opportunities you would open for our students with your generous donation.

Currently, our students are using outdated laptops that do not have the capabilities to support their needs.

These iPads would be used by not only the middle school classes, but our entire site. The students range from Kindergarten to 8th grade. The iPads would incorporate a interactive component to our academic curriculum. Thank you for your support!
