About the store
I am currently in my 5th year of teaching Special Education science at an inner city school. Over the course of my career, I have had to be creative and resourceful in finding ways to engage students in rigorous learning with minimal funding for a population of students that requires the most support. I hope that I will be able to provide some resources that will help you do the same!

My teaching style is accessible, engaging, collaborative, and transparent. As a Special Education teacher, it is important for me to ensure all students can access and engage in the curriculum I create, while being able to differentiate to keep the rigor high. I like to structure units and lessons around tangible experiences or phenomena that students either participate in or create through experiments, field trips, modeling, video, or demos. Students are accountable for creating the questions that drive their learning, modeling the processes that contribute to their explanation of phenomena, and collaborating to gather, respect, develop, and cultivate a variety or ideas and approaches to problems.
