My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." My students are special needs and the basic classroom essentials to promote their learning. They need assistance with organizing and creating a supportive space. These materials will help color-coordinate their projects to make their learning process fun and accessible. These students face struggles that most do not and have a unique way of learning.

Creating a colorful, encouraging, organized workspace will help them stay focused and inspired.

Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them.
