My Students
I teach some amazing students. I teach Special Education in a school in a small town. My students do amazing things every day. I am amazed by the student who conquers their fear of entering a noisy room every day. I am get to watch their excitement as we engage in a cooking lesson that engages all learning areas and see that one student who doesn't eat "different things" take a taste of something new.
We celebrate all learning in my classroom.
Whether it is a big or small accomplishment, it is HUGE in our classroom. I teach the most amazing students you will ever meet. Even faced with Autism they do amazing things each and every day. I am so grateful that I get to learn from them.
My Project
I create almost every material that goes into my classroom by hand. Almost each and every thing we create needs to be laminated to withstand the students in our classroom.
My students are rough on materials.
Many students have fine motor deficits that make grasping objects difficult. Making materials more durable has made teaching easier. I am not longer prepping for hours on end. I actually get to spend time TEACHING these amazing students.
We learn in different ways from our peers, one skill may be repeated for weeks, months, or years until mastery is met. Making these materials durable is a must in our classroom!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
