FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Snell's classroom raised $227

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 have chosen these toys for my students with Autism as well as my low-functioning, non-verbal students as high interest items. The goal is for these students to learn how to request and answer simple questions using their chosen communication method whether it be a speech generating device, a picture exchange system, or verbally.

Everyone deserves to have their wants and needs met.

These student are just learning how to communicate their wants and needs and your kind generosity will help towards their progress to a lifetime of successful communication.
