My Project
I love how resilient, curious, and determined my students are. Each day, they come to our special education classroom ready to try their best, even when learning feels challenging. My students benefit from hands-on, structured support to help them build their reading and executive functioning skills.
The books I’m requesting are high-interest and accessible, helping students engage with reading at their level.
Calm strips, mounted whiteboards, and fidget tools support focus, reduce anxiety, and encourage participation in small group work. These resources will help create a safe, sensory-friendly environment where every student can feel successful and confident in their learning journey.
