My Students
During the 2021 - 2022 school year, I will have the privilege of working with ten students, in grades 6th through 12th, who need additional support with academic and functional skills. I have had the honor of working with most of these students in previous years and love being with them!
What I love most about these students is, despite challenges that they may encounter, they stay positive, persevere, and support each other.
They work hard and improve every day. Their growth may look different than the growth of their peers, but they are succeeding, and meeting their personal goals. These students make me smile and laugh every day. They remind me why I wanted to be a teacher, and help me grow as a person.
My Project
My students love to cook! We typically cook once a week. This can be challenging at times due to students needing to share materials, as well as the need to sanitize materials between users. We will be welcoming more new students into our classroom this upcoming school year as well. My students and I would love for everyone to participate in our activities at the same time! Donations to this project will be used to supplement our kitchen and provide cookie sheets, baking cups, spoons, spatulas, and mixing bowls to each of my students.
Cooking not only teaches my students independent living skills, but math and reading skills as well.
When we cook, we are reading the recipes, answering questions about them, planning, budgeting, measuring, and converting measurements. All of these skills will help them to become independent adults, help out around the house, and develop necessary employability skills.
