My Project

Working in an autism classroom requires being super organized and having materials located and labeled in specific areas for safekeeping. By having worksheets and other curriculum materials stowed away neatly in a filing cabinet, the classroom staff and teacher will be able to access and grab readily available materials to practice the students' IEP goals and objectives.

My goal is to give our students and classroom functional and organized storage space to stow away curriculum materials, worksheets, packets, and workbooks throughout the school year.

Having an organized classroom will teach our learners to be organized in their workspace too!
