The resources you provided are already making a big difference in our classroom. The students love choosing books from the bookshelf that has helped to create a more organized and inviting learning space for books. This has encouraged and increased their interest in reading. With the colored printer, I have been able to create visual supports and individualized learning materials that will meet my student's needs. The laminator and pouches have made it possible to preserve materials that I can use for years to come. The computer and headphones allows students to access digital learning platforms and assistive technology tools. \r\n\r\nBecause of your kindness, our classroom is more engaging, accessible, and inclusive for every student.
