Combing Binding Machine for SPED Preschool

Help me give my students materials to help adapt their curriculum based literacy books to fit their needs.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Diaz's classroom raised $174

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

This comb binding machine will belong to the SPED Preschool grade-level. The materials included will help our grade-level create adaptive verisons of our curriculum for our students.

We have a wonderful curriculum that needs some adaptation in order to make it accessible for our students.

We will do this by making colored copies of the books and making it interactive by using velcro pieces that they can take off and on. We will shorten the books and highlight the important parts to introduce and teach our students.

We can also make multiple copies so that each student can have their own during circle time, and the teacher as well, so she can model. Also our verisons will be laminated so they are tear-safe and can be used for school years to come!
