My Students
My classroom consists of wonderful and talented students. I am a middle school special education teacher that teaches both general education students, as well as students with disabilities. Our school is a wonderful learning community, here to serve children of all needs and capabilities. The students in our school are amazing kids who face extreme challenges in and outside of the classroom due to high poverty.
Our school is also a Leader in Me school, where students receive weekly instruction based on Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
We are a Title I public school. Our students receive free breakfast and lunch. We work hard to make our classroom a community and a family away from home. To make this happen, we have a variety of places in our classroom to learn in many different ways.
My Project
Since March, our whole way of teaching and learning has changed. Things I have done as a teacher for years such as creating class sets of activities to be completed as a group are no longer acceptable with the health crisis we are currently navigating through. This project will help me begin the year by offering students digital learning tools and activities related to social emotional learning: time management, mindfulness, gratitude, empathy, and so on that they can use on their own devices. I plan to share these activities using Google Classroom. Thank you in advance for helping my students during this uncertain time.
