This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My students are energetic, curious and want so much to explore the world around them. However, my students experience difficulty comprehending the changes that happen around them especially at this critical times.
My students are all diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and have low functioning skills.
My students disabilities impedes their ability to effectively communicate their needs and emotions, perform daily life's skills and deal with changes around them.
My students are all currently engaging in remote learning due to the lock down. Since they are learning from home, they mostly depend on online tasks, videos and interactive read aloud via google classroom for academic instruction. My students individualized educational plans recommends a 12 month programming due to their disabilities. This implies that with the lock down still in place, my students will most likely be attending summer school remotely.
My Project
We are requesting dry erase writing books, dry erase markers, and books for remote learning. These materials will be delivered straight to a first grader home for her to use to improve her skills during this remote learning period. My student is showing a lot of effort and grit with distance learning. However, she needs materials to continue to improve her fine motor skills. She usually had access to these items while at school, but not at home.
Improving her fine motor skills is very essential even during distance learning at home.
I am requesting these materials including play foam, and Mr. Potato head, to build on hand/eye coordination. I requested dry erase writing books and dry erase markers to ease the burden of printing out worksheets for activities. I have also requested pop up books because my student loves reading pop up books at school. This will continue to foster her love for reading. To help build my student's social skill, I requested pop the pig game for her to play with her siblings at home.
My goal is to make remote learning more fun for my student while enhancing her fine motor, gross motor, and social skills, as well as reducing stress.
