My Project

I am a high school ELA teacher for the most amazing students with disabilities of all ages and grade levels in a high school in Brooklyn, New York. Disabilities vary from intellectual disability, learning disability, autism etc.

This project will better engage students and empower them with choices by providing diverse seating options such as barstools or saucer chairs.

Flexible seating aids in collaborative learning, promotes a positive classroom community, in addition it can promote healthy, kinesthetic learning.

Reading comprehension games will help students build skills while having fun in the classroom and collaborating in games with their peers.
