My Project

I love that each of my Exceptional Children students brings a unique personality, strength, and way of learning into our classroom. They work hard every day to grow academically, socially, and emotionally, and I love celebrating every accomplishment with them, no matter how big or small. The books will help strengthen reading, vocabulary, comprehension, and communication skills while making learning more engaging. Emotional support items will give my students tools to calm themselves, manage their feelings, and return to learning successfully. Musical items will encourage creativity, communication, movement, confidence, and self-expression. These resources will help me create meaningful learning experiences while giving every student additional ways to participate, succeed, and feel proud of themselves.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
