My Students

Welcome to my teaching world!

I am a third grade teacher in a specialized district that teaches students with a wide variety of disabilities.

My students are third graders who are autistic. My students need to be taught all concepts multiple times and in various ways in for for them to learn a concept. The children must practice learned skills daily, so they can maintain them. The students learn many skills like brushing teeth, potty training, addition, spelling, reading, by using technology.

My Project

My students are learning about animals. They need the LEGO EDUCATION Large Farm set, Wild Animal set, and storage to enhance their learning about animals and their needs. Students will work hands-on to create a farm. Each child will need to write about their favorite animal(s). We will research and explore animals habitats in the wild and learn about what animals need to be safe and healthy. We will also talk about what we can do to help animals by protecting their natural environments. We will also talk about each animals diet. Herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores are three types of animals my students will learn about with these kits.
