My Project

These items, magnetic sight-word sentence boards, guessing game, reward kit and a category sorting activity box, are special because they meet the needs for my special education students. These materials will make a difference in their learning because it will allow them to work longer because they will have sensory items and will allow them much needed sensory breaks. Sensory items are very important for those in a special education classroom because there are a variety of needs.

To infuse creativity into our learning experiences, I plan to utilize a wide range of resources.

Whether it's incorporating technology, hands-on activities, multimedia presentations, or real-world examples, I am committed to providing a dynamic and stimulating classroom environment that encourages active participation and deep understanding.
