My Students

All of my students are between the ages of 5 and 6. My wonderful class consists of students with disability diagnoses who receive speech therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy. Due to the pandemic, this is the first time back in a school building since March. They have been very eager to start and be back in school!

With their return to school, I am dedicated to making sure their learning experiences are full of joy and fun.

This school is in a new location and due to budget cuts, I do not have many classroom items.

My students are full of love and energy. They enjoy Pete the Cat, puzzles, and drawing! They like to explore new items and attempt different ways to play with them.

My Project

This is the first time back in a classroom in many months for most of my students. They have been eager to return to school and are excited to learn. Help make their learning experience enjoyable and comfortable!

In a brand new location with limited funding, my students do not have much to play and learn with.

The container set will allow me to organize the materials created to help my student's learn during targeted centers. The puzzles and stacking games will help my students improve their matching and counting skills. They also love puzzles!

The other toys will help meet their sensory needs which will motivate them to complete other tasks! Due to social distancing, the mats will give my students a clear spot to sit on the floor (no carpets) as well as a place to lay if they need a rest.

In a year full of uncertainty, school is a consistent. Please help make my classroom their home!
