My Project

Access to color imagery is an integral element to the engagement of my students. This is why having a classroom color printer would be beneficial.

Each of my students learn in very unique ways which is why we like to use a multi-sensory approach to learning.

One of the senses that is sometimes overlooked is our sense of touch. For students with tactile challenges or otherwise low vision skills, this sense becomes one that is honed on. These tactile books that I am requesting may prove a good starting point to work on early literacy skills; top-down, left-right reading, page turning, etc..

Working with young learners means a lot of cleaning up and hand washing! Hence the reason for my requests for these hand soaps.
