My Project

Hello, I teach an amazing group of Life Skills Students at SHS. The kids I teach have many learning disabilities but at the same time many amazing learning abilities. My job is to teach them academic skills and transition skills that will help them live more independently and work in a needed field one day. With the use of a Cricut Machine, I plan on introducing them to a small business. We will make t-shirts, stickers, etc for teachers and students at school. They will be able to utilize the skills I teach by taking orders, designing and creating the order, use their money skills and socialization skills.
