My Students

Working in a special needs classroom is the best job in the world. I love coming to work each day and helping my students be successful throughout their school day. All of my students are diagnosed on the Autism spectrum, so all of their needs vary, just like any other student. We are a primary moderate to severe special education classroom. We are a very busy active classroom that loves to play and learn. We are a classroom of friends.

My Project

The storage bins and zipper pouches will help keep our monthly materials organized and keep things neat and organized.

New stem materials to help us with sharing and turn taking.

They will also help us improve on our spacial visual recognition.

The magnet letters and dry ease markers with help us with our spelling and building words together. We will use them for building sight words and vocabulary words. The dry ease markers will also help with reusing materials to cut down on using paper. We use them when we are practicing writing out our personal information so we can have it memorized.
