This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are amazing! Most of the students I teach have IEPs and they are exceptionally talented in so many unique and amazing ways. They have a wide range of learning needs and styles. It has been such a joy to watch them learn and grow this year!

My Project

These classroom supplies will make a difference for my students every day! My students require diverse learning options and the flexible seating, teaching strategies, and games will help provide greater learning opportunities. The seating provides students an option when sitting at their desk is just not working for them and will help increase engagement. As a first year SpEd teacher, the books will help strengthen my classroom strategies for teaching students with mild to moderate learning difficulties. Last but not least, the learning games will help make learning fun and allows differentiation with lessons and strategies. Special needs learning should be engaging and FUN!
