My Project

I have a very diverse group of students at varying developmental levels and abilities. They always make me smile, especially when I see them accomplish or master a skill they have been struggling with. They love to read and play with Play-Doh. Exposing them to these new books and Play-Doh tools will help foster communication with those students who are nonverbal and learning to speak. When students are engaged, there is more opportunity for learning. Having these Magna-Tiles, magnetic gears, and rolling pins will increase engagement so communication can be developed.
