My Students

I teach 6th - 8th grade students that qualify for direct instruction related to their specific needs. Many of these students overcome tremendous obstacles on a daily basis. These students have struggled and faced more disruptions to their learning due to COVID-19. For my students to be successful they need hands on instruction and continued repetition of many different skills.

My Project

These activities and resources will allow students to continue to work on mastering basic skills in a way that will help keep them engaged. These basic skills are a necessity they need to be able to continue to build academic skills.

My students all need individual instruction to better meet their needs.

These activities and resources will allow me to do just that. Lessons are rarely able to be delivered to the class as a whole. I often prepare lessons for each student for each day of the week. Students can continue to extend their understanding of the concept with several of these independent or small group manipulatives.

Students with a need for additional spelling practice will utilize the spelling workbooks for activities based on their current reading and writing grade level.
