My Project

My incredible students need mini thermal printers to support their special education accommodations, giving them quick access to printed notes, graphic organizers, and step-by-step instructions to aid their learning. These tools will help students who struggle with copying information or organizing their thoughts, allowing them to focus more on understanding the material. Additionally, squeeze balls will provide essential sensory support, helping students manage emotions, reduce anxiety, and stay engaged in class. These simple but impactful tools can make a huge difference in their ability to learn and thrive. These tools will create a more accessible and inclusive classroom where my students can feel confident and reach their full potential!
