My Students

My students are being taught using their Individualized Educational Program. They all have one or more areas in school that they struggle to keep up with their classmates. Even though they struggle with certain academic areas, they try so hard to learn!

My students' disabilities range from autism to learning disabled.

Even though they have a disability, they have so much more ability in life because they have had to learn to survive in this world with so many obstacles. My heart is full watching my kids learn skills to make it in this world!

My Project

My students come to my room to complete a great deal of their classroom assignments. I would like to make my room more inviting and flexible for my students. My hope is for my students to feel more comfortable in my room while they are working. These bean bag chairs will help my students to feel like they are welcome to come to my room at any time of the day. I want my kids to know that my classroom doors are always open for them. My hope is the bean bag chairs will allow me to get closer to achieving my goals for my room.
