I am a Special Education teacher in a 3rd grade Integrated Co-Teach Class, and share teaching with an amazing General Education teacher. Our ICT class consists of special education and general education students learning and working cooperatively.
Each student is unique and special in his and her own way, and we look forward to each school day!
Our students’ smiles and eagerness to learn are a daily reward for us.
Our school consists of culturally and linguistically diverse students within a low socio-economic community. Our special education students have been diagnosed with various exceptionalities which include learning difficulties, speech impairments, ADHD, Autism, and sensory issues.
My Project
Our students are expressive! They always have stories to tell! They also enjoy writing and sharing with their peers! As teachers, it is our responsibility to tap into this potential and encourage it!
Paint, painting supplies, paper and an easel would bring our students such joy; and give them the ability to express their ideas and writing in their own individual way!
Children love to draw and color. Being able to decorate their writing would be such a perk! Can you imagine the joy that students who struggle to write would experience by drawing or painting a picture and then sharing it with their peers? Being able to do so would truly enable all students to feel as they are an integral part of the class!
Help us avail our students the opportunity to be individuals and express themselves in their own individual way!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
