Building Learning Materials

Help me give my students the materials in order for us to make their learning more hands on.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Nickerson's classroom raised $638

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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

I work with special needs students in a self-contained setting who are working on foundational academic, life and social skills. The office supplies that I am requesting will allow me to make independent and whole group learning activities and books, so that students can practice skills hands on. The laminating sheets and velcro will allow us to be able to reuse made learning materials, so that students will be able to practice foundational and needed skills daily. These items will help all students practice and gain needed skills to be successful.
