My Project

I'm requesting these books to use as supplemental reading material to help teach standards to my Exceptional Student Education (ESE) friends to have text that is more suited for their reading levels and understanding. Teaching general education standards with typical general education curriculum is hard; that's why I like to teach with what my district gives me and then use my own supplemental materials to help drive those standards home. These books are more suited to the understanding of my students and allow me to really break down the standards and help my students work towards mastery of those standards.

These books are also great for helping me to work towards mastery of ELA IEP goals.

My students all have different goals in the area of ELA and these books also allow me to target their specific individual needs.
