My Students

I am a special education teacher. My students work best with interactive and fun hands on experiences in the classroom. Due to Covid they are unable to collaborate and complete group work in a traditional sense. This is essential need for my students in order to improve their social and responsive skills. It will also allow my students to be motivated and engaged in the lessons.

My Project

I would like to use the walkie talkies to help my students communicate with each other throughout the day. This will help my students improve their social skills, collaborate on lessons, and complete group projects safely from a distance. This is also helpful for my students because it is a fun and engaging way for them to learn.

Students learn best through play, but due to Covid, they are unable to play and work together in a traditional sense.

This is a great way to allow students to work together and motivate them!
