No Money for Classroom Equipment? Be Creative











When the money you raise with the classroom bake sale doesn't quite meet your needs, it's time to get creative.




Enjoy these photos, and one short movie clip, that feature an activity board designed and fabricated by a teacher for elementary students with severe disabilities. All of the toys came from the local 99 cent store.




There are many adults in this classroom and the students who use the activity board are closely supervised.

I am always learning I didn’t go to school for severe and profound, I was a music teacher, became a para and raised special needs kids of my own. Before I added to my certification. What kinds of students would benefit from these boards? I was wondering if I should develop these for my students. I have various sensory items, but no boards.
