About the store

Experience

Our small family company has been making adaptive materials and software since 1998. All of our materials are distraction free with clear photos, images, and prompts. Although our specialty is autism and special education, our materials can be used with all students especially those who are visual learners.

Teaching style

I like to create materials that are clear and precise. To help students learn new concepts, I try to incorporate visual prompts that are faded as a student masters a new skill. While I think that graphics are very useful, I feel that they can also be distracting if used incorrectly. The graphics that I use are always directly related to what is being taught and are not added merely as decoration.
