My Project

Our students are all unique and learn in different ways. They also love to socialize and learn from each other. We are fortunate that our students are respectful and (mostly) kind to each other as well. As we are working on our basic reading, writing and 'rithmatic, we found that our students love hands-on practice and reinforcement and that it REALLY helps them to retain information and facts.

Using traditional and newer games, we can promote their team building and team work as well as modifying familiar games to practice math and reading skills as well.
