Holy Sharp Students!

My students need an electric pencil sharpener and an electric 3 hole punch.

Mrs. K. John F Kennedy Middle School
Port Jefferson Station, NY Grades 6-8

My 6th grade class is made up of the most spectacular special education students in the world.

Many of my students have fine motor difficulties and cannot manage the manual pencil sharpener or hole puncher.

Electric devices will enable my students to be more independent, as well as, much more organized. In sixth grade they see more than one teacher and receive numerous handouts that they often misplace. The hole punch would motivate them to organize their materials in their binders

Your help would ensure all of my students of greater success academically while at the same time increase their self esteem by being more independent.
