My Students

I am a New York City special education teacher working in Harlem New York. The students I serve have been classified as learning disabled, or autistic . Some have emotional or intellectual disabilities. I also support general education students who are at academic risk in a resource room or team teaching setting.

My Project

The post it charts will be posted all over the classroom for my special needs students. It helps to keep my students engaged. It provides a reference and resources for my scholars when we are doing reading, writing, math, science, and social studies lessons. The ink is a necessity for printing handouts and reference materials for students. My students are upper elementary and they use the ink for printing reference materials as well as typing essays of their own. We will also will be printing mentor texts, as well as resources for some of the reading programs that are used with my lower elementary students.
