My Students

I teach in a community school located in a high needs area. My students receive Special Education services. Each school year, I find that my kids have a tremendous amount of energy. They enjoy learning but need constant hands-on engagement throughout any lesson.

My kids are so special to me.

They need access to resources that will allow them to learn in all modalities. Every day I go to work, I want to make it a positive experience for them because that is what each one of them deserves.

New materials will increase the learning in my class and will allow my students to become excited and interested in learning in a way that allows them to discover and appreciate all that education has to offer.

My Project

My students enjoy working toward their goals by participating in anything that is hands on. This project will help me engage my students in learning from the start of the school year. This is my first year teaching third grade, so I would appreciate any new materials to get my kids started!

These students are a fun and energetic group!

I taught them in first grade and remember how excited they would get to play games and sit on my flexible seating options. These resources will be great motivation to get them working on their reading comprehension skills. They will be introduced to multiplication this year as well so any games to get them interested will be fantastic.
