My Project

My students are unique and special in many ways. I teach in a middle school special education classroom. Students have a range of disabilities from autism to ADHD to having high/low anxiety to specific learning disabilities. Students in my classroom have consistently been falling behind since they entered the school building at the age of 5. Covid-19 has only put these students further behind their peers. Most of these students have had home lives that have been completely interrupted and impacted directly from loss of jobs to loss of family members.

The books, notebooks, and noise cancelling headphones that have been requested will help these students grow socially, emotionally, and mentally.

The classroom is very diverse in many aspects. Students range from pre-primer reading up to 8th grade reading level. Students are working on basic math concepts and others are participating in pre-algebra.

I am trying to provide a classroom that is all-inclusive, safe, cozy, and special.
