About the store
I have spent the last twelve years teaching students with special needs in grades 5 through 8. I have taught many subject areas including Math, Reading, Grammar, Social Studies, Science, Health, and Religion. In addition, I have taught adult education classes on Time Management, Organization, Goal Setting, Basic Writing, Basic Math, and Resume Writing. I have brought these lessons into the middle school classroom in a series I call Lunch and Learn where students come during their lunch time, and we review these topics. This has left me with many extraordinary experiences, and materials that cover many areas.

Grids and Lines
This file includes five sheets that help students with the basic formatting of assignments and organizing their work. The first sheet prints lines on copy paper. I use this for students who struggle to write in straight lines on unlined paper, especially on projects when teachers prohibit the use of loose leaf paper. Sheet two is a large grid that I use to help students learn how to line up numbers when using the four mathematical operations. Sheet three is a smaller version of the grid to help
