Teachers Pay Teachers to Support Learners and Teachers

Help me give my students resources to be successful in the digital learning environment by supporting my request for TeachersPayTeachers funds to purchase distance learning functional skills curriculum.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Carpenter's classroom raised $296

My Students

My students have a variety of disabilities which impact their daily lives. Some have mobility issues while others struggle with cognitive skills, fine motor skills, and learning to navigate the social world. As a teacher of students with a wide range of needs, I see their hard work and dedication daily.

My students are bright, motivated learners who need support to learn how to access their world.

They want to succeed in everything they do and with a little help, I know they can do anything they put their minds to. I am sure that with access to tools that will help them explore and grow, they can do great things and show the world how amazing they all are.

My Project

My students learn best through visuals. In the age of distance learning, many with mobility and fine motor issues struggle to access typical online lessons involving typing and reading. TeachersPayTeachers has lessons created by teachers with a background working with students with diverse needs as opposed to corporations that only apply the logic of textbook knowledge to their lessons.

The resources I am requesting would give our class the opportunity to learn online through interactive Google Slides, Google forms, and interactive PDFs made for them by colleagues around the world with expertise in the areas of functional skills and life skills.
