Personalized Learning Materials

Help me give my students fresh supplies and math manipulatives! We do a lot of personalized learning in our classroom which allows students to work at their levels. I need many different math manipulatives to help students engage.

My Students

What are we in 2nd grade? We are flexible and organized! My students walk into my classroom every day excited about the new adventures on which I will take them. They are eager to see what each new day will bring and willing to try their very best in every activity they engage in.

My classroom is an inclusion classroom servicing Special Education students in a general education setting.

I have to use a lot of differentiation throughout my school day to be sure I am reaching and allowing each student access to the curriculum to the best of their ability. I spend hours modifying, creating, and altering assignments so that each student can be confident in his/her work and feel like they are able to meet the requirements for every assignment.

We are hoping to get some indoor recess games like Candyland, checkers and playing cards so that we can interact and play with our friends. These games will encourage us to interact with our friends and work on important life skills. We are also hoping to get some stuff to help us celebrate Polar Express Day and 100th Day of school!

My Project

These materials will help make a difference with our personalized learning in our classroom. Students all work at their independent levels and need many different tools and manipulative to do that. We also need books for our daily read aloud and activities. The headphones are used so students can work on computers or tablets and not have distractions.

All of these materials will help my students have a more successful year.

As a teacher, I am always looking for things to better my students. Personalized learning is a big thing in our classroom and students require many different hands-on activities to help!
