My Project

I work in a special education setting with a range of student ability levels. Each of my students is unique and require materials that are just as exceptional as they are to do their best learning. All of these materials will be put to good use helping me differentiate my instruction to meet my students needs. My students come from very diverse backgrounds and many of them face economic and social hardships. Despite this they come in everyday with the biggest smiles eager to learn and work hard.

With these hands-on materials and diverse titles I will be able to provide each of my students with the high-quality education they deserve.

I know these materials will bring my students great joy. We have made do with the few manipulatives we currently have but I can't wait to see the kind of growth they can make with access to new high-quality resources.
