My primary students all have special needs and have many different needs, from reading and math struggles to communication, behavior, and sensory needs. My goal is to teach my students how to communicate to the best of their ability and socialize with their peers while focusing on academics and daily living skills. I push them to be as independent as they can be in all aspects of their lives. My students work hard and they are super excited to learn.
My Project
Teachers Pay Teachers is a great tool to find new and different ways to teach students, written and developed by teachers for teachers.
I am requesting a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to help purchase grade-level resources like math and reading centers, resources to go along with fundations and LLI, and activities for my students to supplement the current curriculum.
The resources available on Teachers Pay Teachers are subject-based, grade-level appropriate, current, and relevant. A gift card from Teachers Pay Teachers will greatly help with effective planning and will be highly beneficial for my students as it will give me access to thousands of resources.
