My Project

In an effort to enhance financial literacy among my middle school students with intellectual disabilities and autism, I am requesting donations for the acquisition of jumbo fictitious magnetic money for whiteboard use.

Integrating this tactile resource into our curriculum will significantly impact their learning experience.

Financial literacy is a crucial life skill, yet students with intellectual disabilities often face unique challenges in grasping economic concepts. By utilizing this engaging and visually stimulating tool, students can gain hands-on experience with money management, ultimately fostering independence and confidence in navigating financial situations.
