Help me give my students markers, folders, and creative tools that support neurodiverse learners. Additionally, these notebooks will help them file and organize their work and notes for class.

My Project
Math isn’t just numbers—it's storytelling, design, and power. Many of my students, especially those with IEPs or learning differences, understand math best when they can visualize, color, and create.
We need fresh supplies to bring visual and tactile learning to life: markers, chart paper, colored pencils, scissors, glue, and graphic organizers.
These tools help students show their thinking in ways that build confidence and joy.
This year I was able to see the dire need and ran into an issue of lacking supplies to support students with adequate notebooks and tools to organize their work.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
