About the store
Inclusion can work with the right tools, strategies and some good old fashioned dedication. I use the basic principles of ABA (applied behavior analysis) as my foundation for teaching. I first learned about ABA by working for 4 years with adults with autism in a private school that adhered to ABA models. After that I went back to school to get a master's degree in Special Education. I have been teaching in public school for 8 years now and I am a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. I have taught in both self-contained and inclusive classrooms. I work with students who need significant behavior support as well as specialized academic support.

The Simplest Home/Parent Communication Log for Special Education
I designed this to be quick. Often parents of a child with special needs want to know how that child's day was and teachers find it difficult to write notes out in a communication book. The end of the day is just too hectic. On this chart you fill in up to 6 behaviors which you want to be able to tell the parent/guardian about. Then you mark 1, 2 or 3 checks depending on how often you saw that behavior. You also mark 1, 2 or 3 checks to show if the child needed help with those same behaviors

Motivational Tutoring or Small Group Kit with Behavior Chart for Elementary
This motivational tutoring kit will help you with an elementary to lower middle school student who gets frustrated or engages in inappropriate behavior during tutoring sessions. Many students find it satisfying to see tasks checked off a list so I’ve included 6 task lists each with a different design.

Teaching style
I strive to have my students feel good in the classroom even if they struggle socially or academically. I provide supports that show them the good things they are achieving during the day and I downplay the areas for which they did not achieve a lot of success. Though I often have to help students identify something they did wrong I do it so that we can make a plan for how to meet with positive outcomes the next time they face the same situation. I want to celebrate my students' seemingly small successes in building their skill sets, even if their learning pace is different that of their peers.
Awards & shining teacher moments
When a child looks up at you hopefully and says "will you always be my teacher?" you feel honored.
My own education history
I have a bachelor's degree in psychology from Rutgers University, a master's degree in special education from The College of New Jersey and I am a board certified behavior analyst (BCBA).
Additional biographical information
I live in the "Garden State" of New Jersey where I've planted more trees and perennials than any sane person with a full time job probably should. My husband and I enjoy working on our 100-year old house and relish evenings on the couch with our two spoiled dogs.
