Department of Special
with 5th graders in the Language Program. Katie developed weekly lesson
plans for push-in support into the general education classroom to provide
additional instruction to two kindergarten students who were struggling with
letter identification and sound production.
While Katie, did so much more, I want to focus on one more of the groups
that Katie taught. Katie worked with a first grader in the Connecting Math
Program. This particular first grader was facing significant struggles in her
daily life, which she brought with her to school. She would often have a
difficult time leaving class and sometimes could not focus on instruction.
Katie, took this student under her wing and found positive incentives to
help motivate her. In addition, she adapted the program to make it feel as
though it was more like playing a game which proved highly effective. As a
direct result of the additional attention that Katie gave to this student, the
first grader looked forward to seeing Katie on a daily basis and was able to
develop a level of trust and complete her daily learning goals.
