Teaching style

I'm not a certified teacher. But as a special education assistant and a parent of a child with autism, over the years I have helped my son's teacher to create materials that are streamlined to reduce distractions. While some cute designs can be engaging for some students, others can find them distracting. While homeschooling my daughter for middle school, we found the best way forward with math was to avoid over complicating things. As a math teacher in a homeschool tutorial, I've found that kids enjoy engaging activities but are distracted when the designs are too busy. With these materials, I strive to remove the distractions while still engaging students.
