My Project

Setting up a classroom where my special education students can begin to thrive in reading and writing. Having book bins and pocket charts will create a space where they have their own materials to use on a daily basis. Students are more successful when they are comfortable in their learning space and have the essential resources they need. My students are excited to be doing rotations this year. Upon successful completion of their work and working towards their educational goals, they can receive incentives and rewards, including various kinds of sensory items. Hopefully, we can have a great school year and students can thrive upon getting the support and resources needed.
