My Project

What I love about my students is that working with special needs students gives you the opportunity to impact the lives of children who have disabilities, learning disorders, and developmental delays. Not only am I making an impact in their lives, but giving them tools and resources to learn according to their learning style. How each one of the resources will help my students learn is by having access to laundry detergent and fabric softener can significantly aid student’s learning during the school year by improving their hygiene, self-esteem, and overall wellbeing, which in turn can lead to a better focus and academic performance. Clean clothes and a sense of cleanliness can positively impact a student’s confidence and reduce distractions, allowing them to concentrate more effectively on their studies.
