My Students

My students are an energetic and excited bunch of kindergarten to second graders. Our classroom is involved in the Autism Initiative Verbal Behavior Program. All of my students are diagnosed with autism, and they have a range of needs that are addressed through small group and one-to-one teaching sessions.

My students will be excited to have some new puzzles and learning toys for the classroom.

My students are working to improve not just their academic skills but also their communication and social skills so that they can interact with their world in the fullest way possible.

My Project

My students are looking forward to some new puzzles. Puzzles are great for practicing problem-solving skills and improving visual-spatial reasoning. My students use them almost every day and have put them together many times.

The ABC items will give my students a hands-on way to continue practicing letter names and sounds.

Being confident in these skills is really important for eventually learning how to read! My students use Play-Doh almost every day to practice their letters and numbers and to just to enjoy the sensory input of playing with the dough.

The command strips and cabinet organizer will be used to display our hard work in the classroom (and other cute things like our Birthday Wall and our Morning Meeting Calendar) and to keep some of our classroom essentials organized.
