Brilliant Minds!

Help me give my students the tools they need to expand their success/creativity.

My Project

These items will help my students' creativity as well as assignments we do in class. My classroom is a K-5, autism room. These students are with me all day long. The wobble cushions will accommodate those who need to wiggle while they work. The adaptive scissors will accommodate those who need work on their motor skills.

This is my second year as teacher, and I'm going from a high school, multi-cat, special education classroom to now an elementary, K-5, autism classroom.

Most of the materials I currently have are not suitable for elementary students, and these items on my list would help these students be greatly successful.

Thank you for your consideration and generosity!
