I teach an instructional autism program to primary age students. I also have all boys! They are all very sweet and everyone who meets my boys loves them. Since all of my students have autism, they learn a little bit differently than most students. I hand make a lot of the materials we use in the classroom. The problem is that sometimes the things I know I can make to help my students learn are very expensive for me to by on my own. I do not recieve materials from my school or from our district and we are located in a very low income area. That is why I am counting on you to help us make all of our classroom needs become a reality. The boys sure would love to have some of their very own materials to help them become more independent!
