My Students

I have a 6:1:1 classroom of children with Autism. My students are very low functioning and all require visual supports and aids in order to transition and complete activities and tasks during their day. By having a classroom laminator, we will be able to provide these supports for our students.

My students are very low functioning children with Autism.

Many of my students are non verbal and require visual aids and supports in order to go from one task to the next. Many of my students have behaviors that require supports that must be laminated so that students and staff can manipulate them. My school is a district 75 school in New York City. We are not give a lot of supports in a NYC public school. In order to meet my students needs, I have a lot of materials that need to be laminated in order to support the students. By having one in our classroom, we will be able to more rapidly make the supports we need without loosing staff in the classroom.

By donating to this project, my students will be able to receive the aids they need in order to carry out their daily activities.

Many of my students need aids and supports to even carry out daily activities such as brushing teeth, washing hands, etc. With a laminator, we will be able to provide these supports for our students.
