Class Information:
Students per Class: 52
Class Description:
My science classes are comprised of students with ADHD,ADD, Dyslexia, Asperger's, severe learning disabled and I also have Academically gifted students. This makes it very challengeing to meet everyone's needs.
Position:
teacher
Needs:
My top need right now is a portable sound system such as Front Row TOGO .With so many diverse abilities I could use digital cameras for students to use to use in a multitude of other ways. Also, I would like to have four laptops to use as a center for individual projects, to better reach all of my students. A digital microscope that can be connected to a computer would certainly enhance my classe investigations.
My Philosophy:
I believe that all students can learn and should be given the chance to reach their potential. I realize that all students do not learn at the same pace and the same way. Therefore, I feel that lessons should be taught in a variety of ways using the different intelligences.
