My Project

Please help provide my classroom with iPads and other accessories, such as chargers, protective cases, and wireless keyboards, to help increase participation during our interactive activities and therapy sessions.

iPads can be an effective tool and can provide a dynamic communication system for my students.

Some of my students have limited to no verbal speech. This iPad can serve as a communication device and provide alternative way to communicate or interact during different activities. These iPads can be equipped with special programs or communication apps such as TD Snap or TouchChat. These programs allows my students to express their needs and thoughts more effectively.

Thank you for considering this project and helping my students find their voice!
