My Students

"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow". -Albert Einstein

I teach a group of 25 students with special needs ranging in grades from 2nd-5th grade.

My students' disabilities range from Autism to ADHD and many others in between. These students learn in different ways and paper/pencil tasks do not motivate them. We do a lot of hands-on, interactive learning where the students become a part of what they are learning about in order to fully understand the concepts and meet all of their IEP goals. All of my students' special needs mean that they need extra help with math.

My Project

My students are constantly challenging themselves and while doing this, they make mistakes. Mistakes are celebrated in my classroom, as it shows improvement and the fact that we're learning new things and so we go through a lot of erasers. We are in need of new erasers in order to continue to challenge ourselves! I am constantly printing new things for my students, and ink is a highly used item in my classroom. We use the printer to print student work, student created work, paper paperwork along with numerous other things and we are starting to run very low on ink. We also use scissors all of the time and somehow we have lost our good scissors. These supplies will help replace things that we have gone through so far this year.

Your donations will help my students gain supplies that we use on a daily and hourly basis and we have gone through so far this year.

My students and I thank you in advance for your very generous donations and for helping our classroom run smoothly for the rest of the year!
