I work in a 4th -7th grade special day classroom with 9 amazing students! We call our selves the room 8 "busy bees" and want to welcome you to our hive! We spend each day focusing on learning colors, numbers, social skills, object identification and having a lot of fun while doing it! This class is my heart and teaching special education is absolutely my passion and these students make it easy! We are serious when we need to be, but like to keep it light and playful so that the students know they have a warm welcome classroom to come in to.
