My students are incredibly unique small humans who love to learn. They all have diagnosed disabilities and receive occupational therapy, speech therapy, and physical therapy, along with educational services from myself and a teacher's aide. Most of my students use alternative methods of communication like symbols, ipads with communication apps, printed out core word boards, spelling/typing, and other methods
My Project
I was given a grant from general motors to support STEM instruction in my classroom. I cannot wait to share these materials with our sister classroom, so all of our students can use these awesome materials. I am excited for our math centers to be enhanced with the the lakeshore instant centers. In the afternoon the design and build centers will help support peer-to-peer communication and social skills.
Curious minds need tools to support them!
In the spring we are going to order our butterflies for the new butterfly gardens to learn about life sciences.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
