My Project

I love how determined, creative, and full of life my students are. Each day, they come ready to learn, even when tasks feel challenging. My students with special needs inspire me with their resilience and their excitement to grow.

A color printer and ink will make a huge difference in our classroom.

With these tools, I can create vibrant visual schedules, colorful adapted books, engaging worksheets, and personalized learning supports. Having materials in full color will grab my students' attention, make concepts easier to understand, and create a more inclusive, accessible learning environment. These resources will help every child feel more confident, motivated, and proud of their work!
