My Students

In my classroom, we strive to create a community in which our students learn more than just basic academic and self-care skills. They are learning how to become more independent, communicate their wants and needs, and form meaningful relationships that will promote their future success in the world.

My students are a group of Kindergarten-5th graders that have a variety of special needs (Autism, Intellectual Disabilities, Other Health Impairments, and Emotional Disturbance).

My students are learning to communicate and relay their wants, needs, and ideas through reciprocal communication and Alternative and Augmentative Communication Devices. They are learning that there is a world outside of themselves and the value in communication and in each other. All of my students have different modes of communication, levels of cognition, and require individualized instruction.

My Project

Our team is requesting coffee pots, creamer, sweetener, and disposable cups and lids so that we can develop a curriculum to support our students' needs. Our students will make, sell, and deliver coffee and baked goods to the staff and teachers at our school in order to practice skills in a real-world setting.

The donations to this project will afford students affected by significant disabilities natural opportunities to practice functional math, literacy, social, and communication skills in meaningful ways.

Our coffee cart business will promote independence and inclusion of our students with disabilities. One of the many benefits of the coffee cart program includes the opportunity for students to utilize their Alternative & Augmentative Communication systems in natural contexts. In addition, they will contribute to our school community in a tangible way; they will shine in a role of competence while interacting with their teachers and peers.
