My Project

My students are very young. I am their first school teacher. In most cases, I am the first person outside of family members that the parents entrust their children to. My classroom consists of a very nurturing environment. The parents, children, and I feel like we are a family. All of my students have developmental disabilities and several of them have physical disabilities as well. Most of my students are non-verbal. Due to their very young ages and disabilities, my students currently lack the ability to focus on lessons for long periods of time. To ensure the fact that my students are able to focus on a given activity, most of my lessons are hands-on activities that focus on student-led exploration.

My students are eager to learn and work very hard through out our school day.

One of their favorite times of day is snack time. They are of preschool age and have snack time built into their daily schedule. Snack time is a time when my students work on skills such as turn taking, asking and requesting and making choices. I want to provide snacks that my students enjoy. The chips, crackers, cookies and juice that I am asking for will ensure that all of my students receive snacks that they like and help them to build key communication skills.
