My Students

Our school is a kindergarten through 8th-grade school in the Fairmount area of Philadelphia. Most of my students are bused to school. They are from all areas of Philadelphia. There are 20 students with all intellectual disabilities in this life skills support classroom. The students work on academics, as well as skills they will need for independent living.

The students enjoy coming to school each day.

They really love their peers and the adults who work in the classroom! We have birthday parties for each student and we celebrate every holiday! We are all one big family!

My Project

The special education, Life Skills Support, students in grades 6th-8th have varied reading levels in this classroom. Reading levels are from A through K. We are in need of leveled books for our special education classroom! We need these books in order to support our independent reading in the classroom. Studies have shown that the more time students spend on reading, the better readers they become! The bookcase will be a place to put our leveled books.

Please help us by donating to our classroom leveled library!

We are in desperate need of a leveled classroom library. We appreciate your generosity!

Mrs. S.
Grades 6-8
