My Students

My class is composed of 25 students in grade 5 some of which are inclusion special education students. I am the lead special education teacher supporting my students who have modified curriculums in the general education setting.

Co-teaching and inclusion is so important for my students to get closer to their grade level standards.

Inclusive practices will allow us to close the achievement gap.

My Project

This year will be my first year with my students starting full face to face for the entire year in our inclusion classroom. The materials will help my students with the math and language arts materials needed to help modify the delivery of their material. Some of the items will be resources for them to utilize to assist them in learning the grade level standards.

These resources will help in providing the best co-teaching model and opportunities for my general education partner and myself to support all of the students in our classroom.

I will be able to do parallel teaching as well as hold small groups using the manipulatives requested. Some of the resources will help organize their visual schedules and routines.
