Hands On Learning

Help me give my students much needed individualized programming for successful daily instruction.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pinz's classroom raised $254

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project is created in conjunction with one we created for a TeachersPayTeachers (TPT) project which will provides high-quality materials created. TPT resources are aligned with the standards and curriculum.

My special education students require specialized programming and much needed resources for hands on learning on a daily basis.

These materials - cardstock, laminating sheets, and velcro - will provide my students with the much needed multimodal resources that they need to be successful in every day learning. The supplies (with the TPT) will allow me to purchase these engaging materials for my awesome students and make it easier for them to succeed in their learning. This will also assist with planning engaging project based activities for my students.
