My Students

My classroom is made up of energetic and dedicated students with special needs. My students are a group of innovative and imaginative kids with a love of learning. This is my first time starting the school year and I am wanting to provide as many tools to help the kids access the curriculum as possible. In order for me to teach to every child's unique needs, I divide my students into small groups where I provide instruction to match their learning styles.

My Project

My students are very creative and love when they have the opportunity to let their imagination lead the way during our lessons. LEGOS and K'nex are a great way to allow students to explore their creativity and work together with their classmates. LEGOS can be used in so many different ways in our class. We would love to use them during our math lessons as manipulatives for multiplication, division, fractions, etc., and also to create visual models for creative writing inspiration. Team building activities are very important in my class in order to allow students to practice conflict resolution and learn how to work with a group. Working in small groups to build something amazing is a fantastic way to build friendships.
