My students are a group of highly energetic, amazing children with Behavioral Needs in grades 2 - 5. Many students with Behavioral Disabilities have difficulties in learning new information, communicating, and social interaction.
My students are most engaged through hands-on learning activities and computer-based learning.
My students range in both grade levels and academic levels. Finding activities that can encompass all my learners can be difficult! I teach in an urban elementary school in Milwaukee with a high poverty rate. All of my kids have excellent attendance and have a LOVE of learning!
My Project
As we start the fall semester with virtual learning, all of these products will help to make that learning more meaningful for the students. With these materials, I will be able to present lessons to the students in a way that we would normally present them within the classroom setting.
Some of the materials that I have requested will be presented to the students so that they will also be able to learn while they are following along with the lessons I am presenting.
These materials will also help me to set up my space in order to present lessons in a meaningful way.
Nearly all 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
