My Students

All of my students have extreme behavior issues and are misunderstood by a lot of people. Their extreme behaviors prevent them from being with their general education peers and effect not only their academics, but their everyday lives. These children have unique needs that need to be met through my special classroom in order to be successful and eventually be main streamed into the general education classroom. My goal is to provide everything they need in order to be successful and achieve all of their goals, academic and personal.

My Project

These supplies will help the students be able to learn how to use tools in my classroom that they can take with them into their general education classrooms. Tools such as the wobble stools and the art supplies​ will help them be successful in my classroom, which then sets them up for success in their general education classrooms. The wobble stools will help them get some "wiggles" out while still completing their school work. The art supplies will help aid their school work by making in fun and engaging. These students love to create things for their school work and for fun. These supplies will help them build their love for school again and help them get back into the general education setting.
