My Project

My amazing group of 2nd and 3rd-grade special education students are so unique and special with their own special strengths and talents.

Not everyone learns the same way, and it is so important for me to give them other avenues to express their ideas.

These materials are a way for them to share ideas and learn how to have conversations about topics! These materials will be used to have them create, to use all parts of their brain!

Imagination is so important for their social development. With these resources, we will be giving them an avenue to use their imagination and create conversations.

My students love to explore and learn about new topics. With a collage box and food truck play tent, they will be able to create and use all parts of their brain. The variety of materials for creating will give them ways of creating all different items. They will be able to learn about how things are put together, how they work, and how they can help each other.

My students all have processing delays and communicative disorders, these materials will aid them in socializing and giving them a way to be

Let's bring out their strengths and talents and let them shine!
