I am please to introduce you to my AMAZING 6th grade students...
The majority of my students are on the Autism Spectrum or have some other learning disability: However, we choose to focus on all of their FANTASTIC ABILITIES (which are many)!
My students have very inquisitive minds and love to learn using hands on activities. I am constantly learning new things from them on a daily basis.
My goal is to be able to teach in a manner that every student, regardless of their abilities, can relate to and learn from. I have found that many of them relate the best with using technology to learn. Because my students enjoy learning via hands on activities, my classroom budget is quickly depleted each year.
I hope you have enjoyed getting a small glimpse into the lives of my extraordinary students!
My Project
The inquisitive 6th grade students in my classroom tend to thrive more using technology, such as a tablet (which we do not currently have). They also LOVE to share their success and we couldn't think of a better way, than taking digital photos to display on the projector, in the hallway, and through our school newsletter.
The tablets will be used in small group instruction, English and Math programs, to help supplement their learning...while the digital camera will be used to allow them the ability to share their achievements with others.
Many of my students have different challenges that may affect them when using your "typical" learning tools. This is why I have the dream to provide them with the ability to learn in a way that coincides with their strengths.
Thank you so much for taking the time to look at our project, it means the world to us!
