Special Needs Classroom Supplies

Help me give my students supplies for accessibility and to make learning fun .

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Torres's classroom raised $493

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

This project will benefit students with disabilities. I teach 6, 7, and 8th grade students in all core subjects and social skills. My students are in a self-contained classroom and require the use of items like calculators, headphones for accessibility, and velcro for individualized tasks.

We are in need of items that will help my students independently access the curriculum and make learning fun.

We are a very hands on classroom and are in need of several items. These basic items will be used in daily instruction. Your help is greatly appreciated.
