My Students

I absolutely love teaching and learning with my students. My students are diverse learners who need to be engaged during the learning process in many different ways. My students love to read, engage in hands-on learning, and play with their peers. Some of our favorite activities include reading together, doing sensory art projects, interacting with math story problems, and learning with our peers in general education. My students are a very enthusiastic group who work very hard and do their best in anything that they try.These materials will help my students to connect with what they are learning and remain engaged in their learning.

My Project

Sensory Time, will allow the class to explore their senses. It will help the children with sensory processing disorders. Learners who benefit from hands on learning that meets their sensory needs. My students all learn in different manners and benefit from repeated practice and differing instruction. We will be using the sensory dough and the sensory sands in order to take brain breaks and relaxing calm down moments. Sensory is a great activity to share and enjoy with our general education peers because it is an activity that everyone thoroughly enjoys.
