My Students

I am the intervention specialist in a second grade full inclusion classroom. Not only do I co-teach in the classroom, I also manage the IEPs and goals of the 9 students with disabilities. In the school system where I teach, more than half of our students are low-income students. More often than not, some of my students come to school without even their most basic needs being met. Even with these barriers, this does not stop my amazing students from coming to school eager and anxious to learn and be the best they can be!

My students' disabilities range from mild to intensive, so I strive to make sure all of my students learn, no matter their ability level, in this setting.

There is a lot of differentiated teaching and learning going on throughout the day to make sure I am meeting the needs of all of the students.This typically means I need to make sure I have a variety of resources at my fingertips to be able to provide my students with everything they need to be able to learn. My goal is to set them up to be independent, contributing members to society in the future!

My Project

Our school recently got a new phonics program called Really Great Reading. This program is a great foundational tool to teach our students skills to be better decoders and fluent readers and spellers.

Unfortunately, the program is very expensive and we weren't able to get the full kit funded.

We are currently using cookie sheets to build words with magnetic tiles. The cookie sheets work well to hold the letter tiles, but there's not enough room for our students to build their words.

The Lakeshore Write and Wipe Magnetic Lapboards would be the perfect tool to build and write words! Our students often share materials during phonics instruction. Students could take turns between manipulating the letters on the cookie sheet and building/writing words on the lapboards. It's the perfect solution to give our students more hands-on phonics instruction!
