My Project

My students are special because although we are a K-5 special education classroom, they are invested in each other and are good friends despite maybe needing additional social skills instruction. However, sometimes we struggle to share which we work on via our flexible seating choices, bubbles, marble run, etc. We also enjoy our bubble machine and we as a class work hard to earn bubbles! Additionally, investing in a social skills lesson tailored to students with special needs is important for their development and understanding of social expectations. Our county doesn’t provide a explicit curriculum so having the gift cards to find an effective lesson in TPT is going to be so helpful for not only my current students but my future students as well!! Lastly, some of these items will assist in making them visuals since we can reuse visuals that are laminated for years to come. These materials will help my students because they have really enjoyed flexible seating.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
