My Project

Often times students come to school with just themselves. Although we make inform students about having needed supplies when they come to school, we realized that some parents aren’t able to purchase supplies. We thrive to help all students however there comes a bigger strive to help those who actually need it. I want to be that teacher that’s there for them at any cause for whatever need especially my inclusion students. I, myself have a child with special needs, so it’s easier to relate. I like to reward students for doing well academically and socially. It strives as motivation that often rubs on other students which also helps keep classrooms aligned. Thank you in advance for all you do to help my students.
