Austim Can't Stop Me From Working, Creating & Being Social!
Help me give my students with autism a Cricut Maker 3 to create a small business classroom idea and $100 TpT gift card for educational resources on social skills for teens with autism.
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The world of special education is unique and amazing. I can attest that working with my students that have been diagnosed with autism has been nothing but rewarding. The physical and emotional rewards that I experience when working with students with autism are tremendous. My main goal is to see my students experience success and achievement.
The cricut maker and gift card I am requesting will be used in my classroom to create a school based small business.
This will teach and enforce executive functioning skills, job skills, and social skills which many of my students lack. I would like the cricut machine to sell items we create with it and sell those items within our school created by my students. I would like the gift card to purchase social skills lesson plans for my students with high functioning autism. Unfortunately, our school district does not have a curriculum for the high functioning students only those that have more severe autism. My students will love the cricut maker and also the new new teaching materials.
More than half of students from low‑income households
