I primarily teach middle school students identified with Autism and Speech Impairments. They are still learning basics in communicating with others, reading, math, and more. We also work with the students in the other Life Skills style classroom. Our students have varying ability levels; many of my students are still learning beginning sight words, while others love reading early chapter books. We access grade-level curriculum, as well as life skills, social skills, and vocational skills. We strive to relate our lesson to the general education curriculum in a way they can succeed and understand. Our school is a Title 1 (low-income) school surrounding a major Texas city. We don't get much money for curriculum items, and there were few core curriculum materials provided. Our students take such joy in learning, even the smaller skills. .
