About the store
I try to create activities that contain some kind of meaning or purpose related to real life. I've found that keeping things engaging and relevant is a major key to student buy-in, and thus, student success. A lot of my activities are also based on life experience growing up with family in the special needs community. I look at activities from not only the teacher side (what concepts will be taught) but the family side (how will this make a difference to their future) and the student side (what might they find interesting or boring).

Experience

I try to create activities that contain some kind of meaning or purpose related to real life. I've found that keeping things engaging and relevant is a major key to student buy-in, and thus, student success. A lot of my activities are also based on life experience growing up with family in the special needs community. I look at activities from not only the teacher side (what concepts will be taught) but the family side (how will this make a difference to their future) and the student side (what might they find interesting or boring).

Teaching style

In teaching EC students, I have found the need for many hands-on activities. I can't stand doing all worksheets and formal notes. We have to get down and dirty with math.

My own education history

I have a Bachelor's in Special Education with a concentration in Math.
