Help me give my students the opportunity to perform tasks that they may otherwise not get to perform due to their limited abilities.

My Students
This is a separate school that serves students ages three to 21 with severe intellectual disabilities. Many of these students have concurrent challenges such as autism, blindness, deafness, or physical disabilities. Families find it difficult to take the children out into the community once they have returned home from school due to the transportation of wheelchairs and/or behaviors. Our focus is to provide opportunities for students to explore and develop independent functioning by addressing students’ individual needs. Through home, school, and community involvement, we create an educational environment to maximize student success. Being the Daily Living teacher, I am fortunate to see all 125 students each week. Many students require hand over hand assistance to complete an activity and most are non-verbal.
My Project
Many activities are difficult for our students due to their physical disabilities. They may not even attempt to try tasks because of these limitations. My goal is to at least try to get these kids trying and hopefully realizing they can accomplish tasks.
These materials will give students who may not be able to reach items/grasp items, organize materials due to visual impairments, and allow use of the ipad with the longer chargers more opportunity to be successful.
Being able to adapt the students environment gives them so many more opportunities.
More than half of students from low‑income households
