I am in need of a classroom divider for my room. This will enable my students to have a clearly defined work space, free from distractions within the room. My classroom tends to be quite noisy, with active children engaged in play! Additionally, when students become upset, the divider will provide quiet space away from their peers. The materials and manipulatives that I have requested will enable my students to work toward their IEP goals and objectives, focusing on math skills, such as colors and shapes. As many of my students are non-verbal, language development is a primary focus for my classroom. One way I hope to promote language development is through music. The CD/book libraries will help my students development language through music and repetition. Furthermore, many of my students have goals pertaining to their fine motor development. Having a wide variety of materials will enable them to work toward these goals. Presently, my classroom has limited materials for my students to interact with.
