I have a very diverse and wonderful class. I teach in a middle school self-contained special education classroom. The students have a variety of abilities and have a range of physical, visual, communication, and sensory needs. We have students who are mobile, non-mobile, verbal, and nonverbal. My class participates in alternative testing, Special Olympics, and community based instruction. They require substantial adaptations and support to access curriculum. My classroom instruction is focused on application of state standards through relevant life skills and a functional curriculum. Each student is unique and has different needs in regards to accessing and mastering functional goals.
