There are 13 handicapped children in this class and they are all serious about learning, but the conditions have to be better. We are in a very poor section of an urban city where the parents have little to no resources. We, as teachers, have to purchase items like paper, crayons, glue and scissors. We do not get a budget to work from. The students are second and third grade age, but are functioning much lower than that. We try to teach the letters, numbers and how to print sentences so they can communicate with others. We like to gather together on the carpet to learn some of the concepts like days of the week and months of the year. Our students learn from each other, so that is why we sit on the carpet to learn many concepts.
