My students are 3-5 year olds who are inquisitive, energetic, and in need of hands-on learning! I teach in a full-day Pre-K special education classroom at a public school in Washington, DC. My students come from a neighborhood with lots of needs, but regardless of circumstances, they deserve the same top notch instruction and materials as their peers in wealthier areas of the city. My students have been diagnosed with autism or other disabilities that affect language and social skills. They require intensive individualized instruction to learn new academic skills and structured time to practice independent living skills and age appropriate play. The smiles on their faces when they master new skills are contagious! My students are living proof that early intervention helps kids with disabilities conquer new goals every day. I couldn't be prouder to be their teacher during their crucial first years of school.
