A Day in the Life (ADL)

Help me give my students the opportunity to foster their independence using every day adult living skills!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kim's classroom raised $364

This project is fully funded

My Students

My class of middle school-aged 6:1:1 students benefits from using a structural and visual classroom. My students are diagnosed with Autism and multiple disabilities. They thrive on social feedback and positive reinforcements, as we use a Positive Behavior Incentive Program in our classroom.

My Project

My students will benefit from this project by learning and fostering independent skills needed in their daily adult lives. With the materials, they will be practicing folding, sorting and hanging laundry. They will be encouraged to follow visual steps to wash and dry dishes as well as set a table for meals. It is SO important for my students to have hands on lessons while learning and these materials will assist in giving them real life experiences for their future! Given this project, my hope is that my students will be able to gain more independence as they head into high school and their adolescent lives.
