What will be done with my students
These items will be incorporated into all aspects of the learning environment. Some of our students are working on general education standards and others are working on access point standards. These materials will be introduced in teacher led activities to help ensure mastery. The materials are then moved into the students assigned work or task box to complete independently during small group instruction. This will provide opportunities to build on their foundation of information and create more independence.
