This month, six special education teachers received funding to purchase equipment or pay for experiences for their students.
Marni received $228 to purchase six Franklin Children's Talking Dictionary and Spell Correctors.
Kathy received $230 to purchase A-Z reading classroom library and add math manipulative material for her autistic students.
Sara, who also works with autistic students, wanted to purchase a sensory rocker chair. She wrote, "... children with autism cannot tolerate sounds or hugs, while another tunes out those sounds and craves deep pressure hugs." The rocking chair would serve some of her students well. We provided the $445 for her classroom to support the children.
Tonia's class wanted to take a field trip to Kroger to purchase items for a cooking activity and the bus and their purchases added up to $250, which we gladly provided.
Marisa works with students who struggle in reading and she was thrilled to get the $265 for six CD players for the children to listen to and follow along in their books.
Michelle was able to purchase the Raz Rocket license, a reading program, for her class for $160.
Janice, receiving her third grant from our organization, used her grant money, $224 for hand and finger strengthening activity material.
