My Project

Every student deserves the opportunity to communicate and actively participate! Securing an iPad for my elementary students with special needs will unlock new possibilities for communication and learning. This technology will provide access to alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) tools, empowering students to express their wants and needs while participating in academic activities alongside their peers. Interactive tools such as story read-alouds, speech therapy apps, and Boom Cards will further enhance speech and language development, making learning more engaging and accessible. Your support can create a lasting impact, helping these students build the skills they need to communicate and thrive!
