My Project

In my Life Skills classroom, I create and adapt curriculums to meet the needs of my students. With a classroom of students in K-5 I, I have a wide range of ages and abilities in my class. This requires me to spend a lot of time creating adapted books, adapting worksheets, and activities to go along with the individualized curriculums that my students benefit from.

With the use of a coil binding machine as well as the coils, I would be able to create workbooks for my students that will last and demonstrate their progress to their parents.

The lamination sheets will allow me to create adapted books and activities that will last and students can enjoy again and again.

Please help me create the best resources for my students.
