My Students

"Every student can learn, just not on the same day, or in the same way."

-George Evans

Our Kindergarten/1st grade classroom is a busy and exciting place to be! We work with the most AMAZING group of children! Each day, students work on developing functional skills and using their senses to engage in lessons and activities. Our sensory based curriculum ensures that each student can engage in activities in a way that is most meaningful to him or her self. We spend our days singing, moving, shaking, stretching, crafting, thinking critically, exploring textured materials with our hands, and so much more!

Our students require adult assistance, accommodations, and an array hands on materials at actively engage in learning. Any donations made to our class are GREATLY appreciated! We are so grateful for the kindness and generosity shown to our students. Thank you so very much!

My Project

It sure has been a crazy year,

Time to spread some holiday cheer!

What better way to spread much joy,

Than to create festive sweaters for every girl and boy!

Help us make our class holiday celebrations even better,

By wearing our very own "ugly" Christmas sweater!

The children will work very hard to make their sweaters unique,

Even better than something found in a boutique!

We really appreciate your donations to get all the supplies,

Can't wait for you to see the finished product with your own eyes!

Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity!
