My students are 6th, 7th and 8th grade special education children. I teach Earth Science, Life Science and Physical Science to these forty students in a substantially separate classroom. All of my students have learning disabilities and come from a low socio-economic school district where many of them have very few real life experiences to apply to their academic learning. Most of them live in multi-family housing or apartments with little to no outdoor living space. My students have many gaps in their education due to their learning disabilities, their transient life styles (moving with their parents from town to town or in and out of the country), and/or their lack of parental guidance. They tend to love science and are so interested in hands on activities and labs that they haven't been exposed to in the past.
