My Students

I teach students with severe cognitive and behavioral delays in Queens, NY. As a teacher, I can see my students are dedicated, hardworking, and exceptionally respectful and need all the support that they can get. The majority of my middle school students are severely below grade level due to multiple disabilities including Autism and varied Intellectual Disabilities. Additionally, they come from home lives that often can't meet their individual levels of need both financially and academically. They need help with materials and supplies that can provide them with opportunities to practice functional living skills in the classroom. This year our school is applying functional curriculum to help meet the earliest needs of many of the students. This curriculum calls for a TON of daily teaching materials and resources that I just cannot afford. From life skills materials to individual reinforcements (motivating items that low motivated students will work for) and back again, my budget just can't handle replenishing these items for every student as they go through them. I am asking for your help! I know my students can be independent and take care of themselves in the future.

My Project

Toothpastes and toothbrushes will help my student learn and practice brushing teeth. My special needs students at times struggle with personal hygiene. My goal is to help them learn the daily living skills (especially hygiene based tasks) so they can take care of themselves in future. Deodorants will help them learn the routine of applying deodorant and staying fresh. The hand soap is to help them learn and practice washing hands and staying clean. Learning daily living tasks like washing dishes, fixing a bowl of cereal, setting table brings my students one step closer to being independent.

These hands on and practical materials will bring my students’ confidence to learn and practice hygiene skills.

These materials will play a great role in preparing my students follow and practice good hygiene in their daily lives.
