My Students

Hello everyone, I am a preschool special education teacher in an inclusive setting, With a total of 21 students. Collaborating with the state preschool has helped My students’ growth. All of my students come from a low-income background, and they are very eager to learn.

My Project

These materials will help me create hands on activities for my little kiddos to do at home. With these lamination sheets and Velcro I will be able to Print, laminate, and adapt activities for them. The Interactive activities will be created For them, mailed to them and will be used during our virtual lessons to make it more fun, hands on and engaging for my little kiddos. With these Materials I will be able also make matching games and other fun games for them to use at home with Their families as well.
