Whether we're practicing math facts, building sentences, or learning life skills, the board gives every student — no matter their learning style — a way to participate.\r\n\r\nFor my students who benefit from visual supports and hands-on activities, this tool has made learning more accessible and fun. I've watched their confidence grow as they take turns leading lessons, playing review games, and celebrating their successes on the big screen.\r\n\r\nYour kindness didn't just fund technology — it created opportunity, joy, and inclusion.
