My Project
We have an inclusion kindergarten class which means 1/3 - 1/2 of our students have a disability such as ADHD, autism, a cognitive delay or a combination of learning challenges. The neat thing about our students is they help all of us be better learners because in discovering how to help the students with learning challenges, we find ways that help everyone in our class to be engaged in our learning.
We have found that instead of using numbers to add, we understand better when we add up our favorite animals that we can actually hold and move together when we add them.
A fun way to learn CVC words is to write the letters on the track and drive our car across the track as we blend the sounds to make the word. We use legos for math all the time: to show tall and short, to count, to show addition and subtraction. We also can use legos to build words and sentences.
Our class loves kinetic sand and it is a great way for us to relax after we have worked hard on a difficult learning task such as a worksheet or an assessment.
Having access to early reader nonfiction is a great way for us to achieve science and social studies objectives while we are learning to read. When books are appropriate for our level and have engaging pictures we are much more willing to read and reread the book until we can read it independently.
We have found that these materials benefit all learners by helping them to understand abstract concepts and engage in the lessons with greater interest. We are so grateful for these supplies that really contribute to a positive learning atmosphere in our class.
