This project is fully funded

My Students

The students that I have the privilege of working with everyday are not your average children. They are third, through sixth graders living in Connecticut who come in ready to learn all that they can each day. In our classroom we do not study what typical academics because the students in this classroom all have Autism. So when they come in to learn they are coming in to learn everything from their academics to how to brush their teeth and appropriately use the toilet.

They love to sing, jump and play the drums, some of the most spirited children I have ever met!

They are amazing students and I am blessed to be able to work with them every week.

My Project

The students in my classroom work hard everyday to learn how to learn academics, social skills and how to do the right thing. The materials that I have requested for out classroom will support our classroom with those that!

While working hard the students will be able to utilize the materials.

The laminating paper will be used to make interactive book for our daily read aloud times. The snacks will help fuel their brains for the hard work that they do, the markers and glue will help the students participate in their work and the cleaning supplies will help the students stay healthy and coming to school to learn!
