Adapted Books: Access for All Learners

Help me give my students the books they need to access their adapted curriculum!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Basham's classroom raised $257

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our students use an adapted curriculum to access literature and fun books that spark their imaginations and interests. The books like "Dinosaur" and "Seedlings: Ladybugs" allow us to adapt the books with symbols and objects to fully immerse special needs students into loving literature.

Every book listed is used in our curriculum and allows us to have physical copies of the books in the classroom to adapt and have accessible to students with visual, physical, and intellectual impairments.

We hope to have these books accessible to all students and adapted to their needs to help them best access the curriculum and books that would be of interest to them.
