My Project

I love my students because they are funny, unpredictable, challenging, and hard workers. They complain about doing classwork on a daily basis, but put forth their best effort and complete all classwork assignments and assessment. My students like keeping track of their graded classwork and test scores. Progress monitoring is crucial in my Special Education Classroom. Baseline assessment and ongoing progress monitoring must be maintain as proof that my students are making progress towards their IEP Goals. I need heavy duty binders to retain and display my students individual work
