  • Snapshot of the Day

    Every morning the students come in and work on unpacking and sorting all of their personal belongings. Then we start our day by completing our daily calendar journals, review our schedule for the day, and review our personal information. Each week the students learn a new community sign and four key sight words. All students participate in creative arts on a daily basis with their mainstream peers. We also complete daily Math, Reading, Language Arts, and Science/SS lessons in a small group setting.

  • Assistive Technology

    Another key component in our classroom is our daily use of technology to help the students complete many activities independently through the use of a laptop or an iPad. We use a variety of programs to help enhance their writing skills called Clicker 6 and Clicker sentences which can be created with each students personal needs. We also use an app called Bitsboard Pro which helps my students master vocabulary words/spelling words through the use of picture cues.
