I have the pleasure of teaching 8 wonderful and energetic special education 6th/7th graders this year! We are a Title I NYC Department of Education District 75 school.
Each of my students is extremely unique and creative who I want to give the world to!
My students are creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions!
My students come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!
My Project
Hello all! My name is Ms. Furio and I'm a Junior High School Special Education Teacher in Downtown Brooklyn. I have the pleasure of working with 8 wonderful students who are in desperate need of technology.
Each student in my class is unique in their own way - from a student who is visually impaired who needs print enlarged for every aspect of his academics, to a student who uses technology to help guide them in their creative writing.
Technology has become not a treat for education, but a necessity. Most of my students are alternately assessed, which means there are a lot of assessments given on the computer that they need access to.
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
Thank you so much for your time and patience reading this.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
