There are so many great tools and ideas that we as teachers have to better help our Autistic students regulate their emotions and behaviors. Unfortunately, we don't always have the money to fund them when it's time to set up our classrooms. Using funding from the online charity website DonorsChoose, I received over $4600 to help set up my K-2 Autistic classroom. I will share how the process worked, ideas I used to set up my classroom, and help you develop your own project to get funded to help your students have a successful year.
