My Students

Hello, I'm a SETTS provider at my school in Brooklyn. SETSS is specially designed and/or supplemental instruction provided by a special education teacher that can help your child stay in the general education classroom. SETSS may be provided for as few as three hours per week and as much as 50% of each school day.

SETSS happens in two ways:

Direct Instruction: The special education teacher may work directly with your child (or your child and up to 8 other children together) and provide direct specially designed and/or supplemental instruction to your child. The special education teacher may adapt the subject matter (“modified curriculum”) and/or use visual aids, highlighted work sheets, simplifide directions, and other kinds of “modified instruction.”

Indirect Instruction: The special education teacher may also work with your child’s general education teacher to adjust the learning environment and/or modify and adapt instructional techniques and methods to meet your child’s individual needs.

In order to better build their tool set for general education classrooms there are essential materials I will need to make learning interesting and fun. My students are great kids that try so hard to keep up.

My Project

Hello, my name is Mrs. G and I am a SETSS(Special Education Teacher Support Service) teacher in grades Kindergarten to 8th grade teaching only ELA and Math in a small group instruction.

My students love to learn and love to read as well.

I adore all of my students and want to maximize their learning time while in my class for only one period a day. These books that I requested for are some of my favorites, not only because they are informational but also teaches them strategies they will need to succeed and thrive in their general education classrooms. I also chose math games so the students can practice various lessons learned on both new topics and to maintain prior lessons.

I know that my SETSS students will be absolutely in love with all the books and games i chose. I try my hardest to get to know all of my students interests individually so I can motivate them when learning.
