My Students

My students are an energetic and excited bunch of kindergarten to second graders. Our classroom is involved in the Autism Initiative Verbal Behavior Program. All of my students are diagnosed with autism, and they have a range of needs that are addressed through small group and one-to-one teaching sessions.

My students thrive when they have specific expectations, a daily schedule and routine, and an organized classroom environment.

My students are working to improve not just their academic skills, but communication, fine motor skills, and social skills, so that they can interact with their world in the fullest way possible.

My Project

These organizational materials will allow my students to be independent in the classroom. They will be able to follow the routine of putting their work into the Turn In Your Work organizer, making sure everyone's assignments are properly accounted for. The storage caddies will allow them to find classroom items, play with toys, and clean up after themselves independently.

Students thrive when they have an organized classroom and know what is expected of them during the school day.

These items will allow our space to be clean and welcoming. It will foster independence in my students, giving them a sense of pride as they navigate our classroom community.
