My Project

I've had my eyes on these materials for several months. I think they will be wonderful to help my kiddos with special needs. Each student in my classroom has an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and requires specialized instruction to learn new skills. These materials will be wonderful to help them learn about social and emotional skills and use these skills throughout all areas of their lives.

By donating to this project, you will be helping support social and emotional needs of students with special needs.

My students show me daily how they can conquer not only their weaknesses, but the world! Thank you so much for your consideration!
