My class is called Functional SCILLS. It is located in Gilbert Unified School District #41, in Gilbert, Az. .The students I teach have Moderate Intellectual Disabilities and spend the majority of their day in my self-contained classroom.
I provide the students with a hands on, concrete approach to learning, basic decoding ,and sight words skills for reading, functional math such as money and the value, written expression, pre-vocational skills and daily living skills. The focus is on functional academics and life skills that will help these students achieve there IEP goals and create some independence for them.
Each students has their own specific learning needs as written in their individual IEP, and plans of training are derived from these specific needs. The overall goal is to bring them to their highest learning level possible, to enable them any independence possible, based on their individual learning potential.
