Material to Make Material for Children With Autism

My project needs laminating pouches, laminating machines, construction paper, a paper cutter, velcro dots, and glue sticks.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Block's classroom raised $541

This project is fully funded

I work in a self-contained special education elementary school for children with a variety of disabilities. My class consists of 6 children with autism. My students do not have spontaneous speech and need help with most activities. It is very hard to find programs to teach my students. I spend many hours creating books, communication, and other learning tools for my students to use. In addition to my time, I need a great deal of material to create interesting tools for my students. I would like to request materials that would help me to make interesting, useful tools for my students to use. Some of the students use picture symbols to communicate their needs. These symbols must be laminated. In addition, most of the materials that my students use to learn are custom made to meet their individual needs. Almost all materials in the classroom need to be laminated. We have a special library of books that have been created and modified for my student’s specific learning needs. These books area lot of fun for my students as well as a useful teaching recourse. These books take a ton of time and material to make. I like to make them as strong as possible so many students can use them in the future. Creating materials is a job that is never complete. I can always make more. I need materials to help me make fun, durable materials for my students. In addition, as my students learn, their needs change. Please help me keep up with my students needs.
