My Project

I am teaching medically fragile students this year with extensive support needs. They enjoy a lot of sensory play and music. I would love to give them a few more sensory materials, bubbles with an adapted clicker so they can do them on their own, and some emotional regulation tools. I would also love a classroom printer/copier.

We don't currently have access to a color copier.

Having one in the classroom will help me have the materials I need to support my students. Right now, I have to rely on others to print things for me, or pay to get copies myself. It has delayed the setting up of lessons and activities because we don't have the materials we need.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. My students and I are so thankful for donors like you.
