The purpose of an education is to replace an empty mind with an open one! My students are special education kids with various disabilities and backgrounds. They are very resilient and have a lot to deal with in their everyday lives. Some of my students come from poor families that cannot afford simple school supplies. They are very hands-on oriented and they learn the best when they can put concepts into motion. Keeping them engaged in the learning process through activities and visual representations is a must. It is very important that they start to relate what they learn to the real world. Education is much more than just learning basic concepts, it's about learning who you are and what you are capable of!
