Living in the 21st century, it is imperative for my students to become more independent with technology. The requested donations will help my students achieve this goal. The mice, mousepads, and headphones will make technology more accessible for my students. These items will be used every day in our physical classroom, as students work to build vocational skills (typing, searching the internet, completing job applications, filling in documents). Specifically, the mice make technology easier to use, especially for students who have difficulty with fine motor movements on touchpads. Due to their disabilities, many of my students have low reading levels, or are nonreaders. The headsets will make reading text on the internet more accessible and independent, by allowing students to have unknown words and difficult passages read aloud to them. With the help of these donations, my students will grow their independence with technology and in turn, gain more opportunities for future employment.
