Help My Special Education Students Shine

Help me give my students with disabilities the opportunity they deserve to feel successful, valued, and capable.

My Project

Every child deserves the opportunity to feel successful and valued. In my self-contained exceptional children classroom, I have the privilege of teaching middle school students with significant learning and developmental disabilities. While each student's journey is unique, they all share the same hopes of learning, belonging, and experiencing success.

The sensory mats, learning games, and autism tools will make a big impact for my students.

These tools are essential for our classroom and will help my students understand learning in their special way.These moments may seem small to others, but they are life-changing for my students and their families.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
