My Students

My students are a diverse group of kids who have various strengths and needs. They are in a mixed class that includes students who are diagnosed with multiple disabilities. When they come to the classroom, they are eager to learn and are motivated to try their best in each classroom subject and activity. Watching them grow each day is a privilege.

To help them succeed in the classroom, my students benefit from multi-sensory activities and flexible seating options.

My students are best supported through a highly structured environment with kinesthetic and visual supports. Supporting their needs promotes communication and interaction amongst peers and adults.

My Project

The iPad and pencil will help students navigate through different applications to create projects that will help them understand how money works. The iPad will help students with special needs access to learning in new and creative ways. My students are visual and kinesthetic learners. The use of the pencil will help students create unique projects on the iPad. Students will not only learn a lot about financial literacy. They will enjoy what they are doing and have fun while doing it.

Access to technology is crucial for my learners.

Since we were not given technology in our classroom, we need to be creative in how we provide access to the special learners at our school.
