My Students

Every single one of my students are unique in their own ways. I work primarily with the youngest students in my school with their speech and language development and skills. I have the pleasure to work in the classrooms with my students, as well as in small groups or individually in my classroom.

My students are hard workers and strive for success every single day.

My district is in a small community. The students come in every day excited to learn. Our school motto is to put kids first, and that's exactly what happens in our community.

My Project

I work with a wide range of students, that are at a variety of levels. They start seeing me as young as three, and continue to see me up until about age 10. Many of my students have other disabilities and needs. I asked for a wobble stool to help my students focus on their tasks, while giving them the opportunity to move and wobble while working.

Pretend play is a large part of our work together.

The cash register will seem like play to my students, but we will really be working on hard on their language development through it!
