Unique Learning and Organization for Special Needs

Help me give my students some materials to do Unique experiential Learning for Extensions students.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Syal's classroom raised $900

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are curious and playful. They’re always ready to explore something new and love hands-on materials in the classroom. Please help us acquire funding for UNIQUE hands on educational resources to support students with special needs. Our goal is to provide inclusive and engaging learning experiences that cater to diverse abilities. Our students with special needs face unique challenges in accessing quality education.

These materials will teach students through hands-on activities, project-based interactive learning, real-world applications, role-playing etc.

In a classroom setting, students often struggle to keep their belongings organized, leading to lost items, distractions, and inefficiency. This lack of organization can negatively impact student learning and classroom management. Unique materials can help bridge this gap by enhancing problem-solving skills, developing critical thinking, fostering creativity, and promoting social interaction. This donation would enable us to create project’s that are not only inclusive, but also adapted/ role playing and engaging.

We believe every student deserves equal opportunities to explore Unique fields. Your support would significantly impact our students' educational journey!
