My Students

All teachers are "special"; special education teachers have extra special needs for their students. My students aren't conventional learners. I teach a variety of students with a variety of different learning disabilities. Some verbal, some non-verbal, but not being able to speak is not the same as not having anything to say! It is important to understand each individual and how differently each learns. I create personalized lesson plans assessing the needs of each individual so each student can thrive and reach their maximum growth potential.

My Project

A printer would help me to safely print and laminate individual materials for my students, for in person and blended learning. A magnetic daily calendar, would allow me the option to wipe down all materials, and rotate it among different groups. I am printing and laminating multiple books on a daily basis, we want to be able to make sure the children have all their individual materials to have in the classroom and to be able to bring them home. We share a printer school-wide, and having a personal printer in the classroom, would help prevent the spread of germs.
