My Students

My students are special education students who have a wide range of disabilities from behavioral disorders to academic deficits. They are a wonderful and phenomenal group of students who always strive to do their best.

My classroom is a positive place where the students can feel motivated to learn and can gain the confidence needed.

Some of my students have high functioning autism, while my other students have difficulty with reading and writing. I teach a combination of social skills to students with high functioning autism to some wonderful students who are highly motivated to reach their full potential in reading and writing.

My Project

These two TI 84 plus graphing calculators will make a difference in my student's lives by allowing them to reach their full potential in math. Not having a full class set of graphing calculators hinders their progress.

Having these 2 extra calculators will allow the students to be more independent and problem solve at a rate that is amazing to them.

These students struggle with math on a daily basis and deserve nothing but the best!

My students struggle so much with their learning disabilities and these calculators will give them the level playing field they deserve in math. Thanks for all your support!
