My students attend a distinct special education program for primary students with moderate to severe learning disabilities. This is a “blended classroom,” meaning that our special education students have several opportunities daily to work alongside their general education classmates. The general and special education teachers partner to implement lessons and activities appropriate for both groups when they are blended together.
We are broadening our students’ empathy, respect, responsibility, and acceptance of others within a diverse population while providing a challenging and appropriate education.
This cooperative and collaborative effort involves students, parents, and staff within the school community. Our classroom is diverse and our students are beginning to learn to communicate using their words or device.
My Project
My students have love attending our group lessons during remote learning, seriously! We have had so many generous donors who have provided the resources to create a whole system of tangible materials for learning at home. We are rockin' and rollin', but now when need to get our rhythm down!
This project will provide each student an egg shaker, drum, tambourine, rhythm sticks, bells and even a sturdy bin to keep the instruments safe.
If this project sounds like music to your ears and love the idea of helping some awesome kids break out some sick beats, we need you! If we can get this project flowing, we will be able to provide a hand-on music class for our special learners and start singing a new tune :)
