My Project

Think about your immediate family members. Think of the various personalities, likes, dislikes, and hobbies. Think about a classroom of young learners in an elementary school. Now, imagine a special needs classroom with the same various personalities, likes, dislikes, and hobbies as well as each child having their own unique learning difficulties, needs, interests, strengths, characteristics which impact learning and behaviors, and individualized learning goals.

For my K-2nd grade Special Needs students, I must adapt and re-structure my lesson plans and activities each week based on conversations with my students as well as parents to provide the best individualized instruction.

This project is important as it will provide Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards for me to purchase adapted work binders based on grade-level standards for my PreK and K students along with EdMark task box work created by special educators! Why recreate the wheel when I can support teachers who have already created adaptive lessons, remediation resources, and OT materials that I can easily print!

Thank you in advance for any support you are able to provide to my precious students!
