Hello! I am a sixth year teacher in a fourth grade resource room. I am always looking for ways to change up my teaching techniques and expand learning activities. Each year brings new challenges. The more ways I can teach the same material has a much greater possibility of reaching more of my students. My students are eager to learn each day but have learning obstacles to overcome. I try to involve as many of their senses as possible. I try to make learning a fun experience for each one of them. The more engaged they are, the easier the learning process is. I would appreciate any help you can give us to acquire new resources that I can use this year and for many years to come.
