Help me give my students technological equipment like tablets, headphones, and a printer so they can access the world beyond their classroom, and with your help we can make possible.

My Students
I am a 5th grade special education teacher, located in a public school in Brooklyn, New York. The school is located in a high needs community and many of the students are supplemented with free or reduced lunch.
I have 6 students in my classroom with different types of challenges.
All the students in my classroom are alternately assessed (not standardized). In addition to my special education classroom, my students have counseling services, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, and/or Speech Services.
My Project
My students have shown their ability to command technology, despite outdated classroom technology. By updating the technology to reflect the world around them, your donations can provide consistency for my students. Consistency is key to the success of my special education students.
During choice time, the students can fully access the world around them, while being mobile on their tablets.
They can either share what they learned on their tablets with their classmates or use headphones to block out distractions. In becoming independent, they can control their headphones and tablet volumes so they are comfortable in their learning environment. The printer will be used for the distribution of assessments to gauge student learning in ELA, Math, Social Studies, and Science. All of these donations will enable my students to become fully engaged in their learning so they will have a successful school year!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
