Being these students are in Special Education, they would benefit from hands on learning activities to expand their knowledge. Since I teach all subjects, the science models would be helpful when teaching those topics. Students would be able to use their sense of sight, and touch to better understand the various topics. As an incentive for my students, they will be earning snacks for their hard work. Reading is very important in the learning process. So my students will be exposed to various reading books on their functional level. They will be able to practice their reading fluency on books of their interest.
