My Project

In my classroom, having the right materials is essential for helping my special needs students engage in meaningful, hands-on learning experiences. I am requesting supplies that allow children to explore and manipulate objects as part of their daily activities. These tools will support fine motor development, sensory processing, and cognitive growth in a way that meets each child’s individual learning style. Additionally, I am in need of sleep mats, as my students require rest time to recharge and maintain focus throughout the day. A calm, comfortable rest area plays a key role in regulating behavior and helping students transition smoothly between activities.

These materials will make a significant difference by creating an inclusive, supportive environment where all students can participate and thrive.

My goal is to ensure that every child in my class, regardless of their abilities, has the opportunity to engage, learn, and grow through developmentally appropriate and accessible resources. What makes my students special is their incredible resilience, creativity, and desire to connect. They may face unique challenges, but with the right tools and support, they are capable of achieving great progress. With these supplies, I hope to provide them with the foundation they need for both academic and personal success.
