How to Play This activity is great for a center, or for independent seat work. I recommend laminating the product so it lasts longer, especially with the younger kids. Cut out all 36 pieces, and stack them in a pile, spread them out on the table, or hold them in your hand, it does not matter. Decide which activity you would like to play (sort by color, or sort by shape), and choose the appropriate mat. This activity comes with two mats: one to sort by color and one to sort by shape, and 36 ga

About the store

Experience

This is my 8th year as a Special Education Teacher in Chicago. Prior to teaching I substitute taught for 2 years. I loved being able to see and work with students of all ages and in different locations. I have family members with Autism, and a 4 year old with Autism.

Teaching style

I am a very hands on teacher, and I enjoy using color and manipulatives to help engage the students.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I have the honor of being a teacher. I had a shining teaching moment when some of my students increased their NWEA scores by 30 points.

My own education history

I have a Bachelor's Degree from Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI, and a Masters in Education, Special Education, from the University of Phoenix.

Additional biographical information

I have been working with children with special needs for over 16 years and I truly feel that it is rewarding. I am constantly trying to create and figure out new ways to present information to my students to help them learn. For the past few years, my coworkers have been telling me to put my stuff online, so I thought I would give it a try.
