Mustang Readers

Help me give my students knowledge through books. I have a curriculum that focuses on a monthly theme. The books on my list help me teach my students through fun, dramatic read alouds. We also need a laminator, games, and more.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I am the PSI (Preparing Students for Independence) teacher at our school. PSI is a Special Education class. My students have multiple and severe disabilities. They are some the most loving children, and they work so hard to accomplish their goals.

Every student can learn, just not on the same day or in the same way.

My Project

Currently I am having to check out books from the public library, and while I am grateful for that resource, it is only available for our class temporarily. My students and I will benefit from these books through learning and enjoying the fun, educational stories they tell. Not only do these books tie in with our class's monthly themes filled with fun learning activities, but they also tie in to help work on each of my students' IEP goals and objectives. These books will be very appreciated and treated with love and care.

A book is a gift you can open again and again.
