My Project
What I love most about my students with special needs is their resilience, curiosity, and the joy they bring to learning every day. Each of them has a unique way of seeing the world, and when given the right tools, they shine in ways that are truly inspiring.
The STEAM resources I’m requesting—like hands-on building kits, sensory-friendly art supplies, and adaptive technology—will help my students learn by doing.
These tools support different learning styles, making abstract concepts more concrete and accessible. Whether it’s experimenting with science, creating art, building simple machines, or exploring basic coding, these materials will encourage problem-solving, collaboration, and self-expression. Most importantly, they will help my students feel confident and included in every learning experience.
Thank you for helping me create a classroom where every child can thrive.
