I am a special education teacher in a 3rd grade integrated co-teach class and share teaching with an amazing general education teacher. Our ICT class consists of special education and general education students learning and working cooperatively.
Each student is unique and special in his and her own way, and we look forward to each school day!
Our students’ smiles and eagerness to learn are a daily reward for us.
Our school consists of culturally and linguistically diverse students within a low socio-economic community. Our special education students have been diagnosed with various exceptionalities which include learning difficulties, speech impairments, ADHD, autism, and sensory issues.
My Project
Writing and reading are important facets of third grade and part of the daily routine. Students learn in different ways, and show what they know in different ways. As a special education teacher, it is my responsibility to give our students the opportunity to do so!
Can you imagine the joy and excitement students would have presenting their writing and taking turns reading to each other while using microphones!
Our students enjoy breaking up into small reading groups where they take turns reading and discussing what they read. They look forward to working together, and a microphone that they could take turns using would even further enhance their eagerness to participate and learn!
The beauty of having this wonderful piece of technology for our students is that it can be used across all subject areas – reading, writing, math, science, social studies! A microphone would also teach our students social skills such as being polite and courteous to one another!
Learning to speak in front of an audience, regardless of how small or large, is a daunting task. Some of our students have a difficult time reading in front of their peers or presenting their projects.
These microphones would be an exciting way for them to overcome their shyness, and encourage them to want to read and share while having fun at the same time!
Our students would be so excited to be able to use microphones while learning! Please make it possible for our amazing students to obtain this amazing piece of technology to enhance learning and grow!
