My Project

I started this page to support my students with learning differences in a classroom that has very limited resources. My goal is to transform the empty classroom into a beautiful garden of learning where children with various needs will thrive!

I envision my students utilizing flexible seating learning with lap desks that create a comfortable and productive atmosphere.

Students will have a choice of writing devices to support engaging and creative expression with flare pens, pencils, and markers. The rug is an essential part of any classroom where we gather as a community to connect, communicate, and learn.

Thank you for all of you that make learning happen for students with neurodiversity!
