We will be working and learning with students in 3 ways:
- Monthly lessons in each class : Our goal for the year is to be in each classroom one time each month, teaching and learning with the students. We teach the same lesson to all classes; We simply change some of the information to best meet the developmental level of the students.
- Small groups~ working with students in groups of 3-6 with a targeted/ specific skill set to work on to build success. We will need your permission to work with students for more than 4 sessions
- Individually ~ on an as needed basis, We can work with students with specific school related issues/concerns. We will need your permission to work with a student for more than 4 sessions
Thank you and we look forward to working you this year!
