Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

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 Project

Our goal is simple yet profound: to create durable and engaging learning manipulatives for nonverbal and low-verbal students, thus unlocking new pathways to learning and communication.

Imagine a world where learning materials burst with color, where every interaction with educational resources is an invitation to explore and discover.

This is the world we strive to create for our students. With your generous support, we can give them the tools they need to thrive.

In our classroom, we value the chance to customize learning experiences to suit the unique needs of our students. However, we're up against a significant obstacle: the lack of a color printer. Many learning materials rely on picture symbols to facilitate questions and answers, but without vibrant colors, their impact is diminished. The absence of a color printer not only hampers the learning experience but also dampens student engagement, a crucial factor in their educational journey.

Our previous printer, now eight years old, has recently broken down, leaving us in dire need of a replacement. With your assistance, we can secure a new color printer and ensure that our classroom remains a vibrant hub of learning where every student has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
