My Project

The materials and supplies in this list support an amazing group of students with diverse and ever changing needs. As a special education teacher with over twenty unique and valued students, these supplies will support a successful and safe year. Success looks like having all students in classes with their peers and friends, while still receiving instruction that meets their individual needs. A goal of mine this year is to find and utilize creative and effective strategies that support all learners in their general education classroom. Maintaining a clean space is essential for learning for some of our students, and the cleaning supplies in this list will support their success. Additionally, with TPT resources, I will be able to spend more time on direct instruction and less time reinventing the wheel of classroom lessons for each individual need that may present through 25 unique learners. Finally, our classroom is incredibly limited on co-regulatory supplies such as markers. These supplies are essential for our learners to regulate with us in the mornings and be in a safe and happy space to enter their classrooms. These supplies will tremendously support me in achieving these goals!
