My Students

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My students have Autism but are very eager to learn and try new things.

I am a first year teacher and my classroom has very limited resources and materials. With your help my students will get what they need and deserve.

Thank you in Advance!

My Project

I am requesting two iPads for my 3-4th Grade Autistic Support classroom. My students come from low income households without access to many tools to increase their skills. In my classroom my students work very well for rewards, technology being a huge incentive as something to "work for". I would love to be able to have my students work on the iPads building on a lesson that was just taught as well as increasing their skills but unfortunately my school doesn't have enough technology to go around. The desktop computers that we have are very old and do not allow for all the wonderful apps that can be put on the iPad.
