My Students

Every Child Belongs - does not matter if their voice/communication is either verbal or non verbal!

My Kindergarten students are children with special needs who come with a variety of interests, strengths, and challenges.

They are all curious, innovative and come in with various communication needs like, they may struggle to understand the meaning, pronounce a word/sound correctly. Others will arrive having a lot of experience with books and language, and some may be dual language learners. They might have disabilities or developmental delays that impact their learning, language, social skills, and/or behavior.

Back to in-person learning after an year of virtual learning and stating at home, student's need hands on learning and visual cues to participate and understand the concepts. I love my students and it is an absolute joy to know each of them and work with them to help with the skills they struggle. They keep me constantly busy in making their speech activities fun, creative and challenging. They love different games, puzzles, and surprises. It takes in lot of time, materials, thinking for prepping the activities for these students. There is always need of materials and activities.

My Project

Each of my students needs is different and the material for each student is individualized to meet their needs and improve their communication. Different material towards the same goal will help the students learn and retain the information in different situations.

My students are more engaged in their work and less disruptive when they are given a choice of activity.

The material that I get from the teachers pay teachers will help keep the students engaging, teach concepts with visual cues and fun!

Personally, I have seen the material with visual cues keeps my students engaging, interactive and pays attention to task.
