My Students

I have 6 awesome students in 2nd-3rd grade. My class is one of three classes in our district for students with autism. We love learning! My students are visual, hands-on learners who deserve the best academic experience possible.

We spend our days learning about academic subjects, social skills, and we all mainstream into general education classes to further our social skills and make new friends.

Our school was the 36th school, internationally, to receive STEM certification and we are a STEAM school.

My Project

My students work hard on academics and social skills daily. We do a lot of small group work, as so many of our students are on different levels. We want to get rid of our desk and create an environment that is focused more on community and collaboration. Tables would allow our students to do more group work and be more social with their peers. The tables would also provide a great space when we work on taking turns and sharing while playing educational board games. We would use the tables for our STEAM activities and crafts we make in the classroom. Help us say goodbye to old school desk and become a more collaborative classroom!
