My Project

Hello!

My name is Mr. Swing and I am a special education teacher in a 12:1:1 class at a Title 1 school located in Richmond Hill, Queens.

I strive to provide my students with a sensory rich environment where their sensory needs can be met in order to assist them in reaching their fullest potential.

As a special education teacher it is exceedingly important to the needs of each of my students by having activities that appeal to multiple senses and meet their sensory needs.

Many of these items will also assist my students in strengthening their literacy, decoding and mathematics skills.

Mr. Swing PS 66 J. Kennedy Onasiss Grades PreK-2
