My Students

My school provides special education to students from Pre-k to 8th grade. We are a multi-site program with many of our classes in co-located schools. The students are alternate/standard assessment and have various learning challenges. The students we work with are blind, autistic, language delayed, and many have behavior or emotional difficulties.

My students thrive and reach great heights because of the tremendous work of the teachers and staff.

We are a united force.

My class consists of 12 students that are 3 and 4 years old boys. Their backgrounds differ as well as their personalities. They all have a diagnosis of autism or learning disabilities. Classroom instruction needs to be differentiated and taught through a variety of modalities. Their individual needs vary academically, socially and sensory. It is necessary to provide my students with a multi sensory teaching approach in order to support their needs. They are a fun loving and great group of little guys. Their curiosity and love of learning motivates me each day. They are always excited to learn new things and love coming to school They keep me on my toes every day and I love them for it!

My Project

Play in Pre-k ..thats how we roll! Play is work! My 12 boys are special needs and are becoming very curious and creative learners. Lego's duplo building blocks, vehicles and people will provide a multitude of opportunities for my students to expand their creativity and explore. There is a noticeable difference in their engagement when they are playing with colorful exciting manipulatives. Their language and attention increases as well as their ability to share and take turns. By donating to our project you are not only helping my students increase social and emotional development and play skills but academically as well.
