My Project

My students are unique individuals who deserve access to the appropriate tools and resources.

All of my students learn in different ways and to support them I differentiate all lessons and activities so they can access content and engage in meaningful ways.

When given the appropriate tools, my students will be able to succeed.

With this project, I am requesting laminating pouches, clear plastic sleeves, velcro, toner, and card stock paper. These basic materials are important to run my 6:1:1 classroom for children with Autism.

My students require picture symbols for instruction and communication. These symbols need to be printed regularly, laminated, and attached with velcro for easy use. These simple tools requested play an important role in the students' lives and learning experiences. Picture symbols give children a voice and support their independence as they grow.
