     Welcome!  I am looking forward to a productive year with you. This will be new and different, and I am here to support you!

    Resource Room is designed to develop, strengthen, and improve skills for positive academic performance and achievement.  Through content area course work, pre- and post- teaching, cognitive learning strategies are taught which focus on comprehension and memory skills, organizational and study skills, test taking, and the enhancements of written expression.  Self-advocacy skills and transitional planning are also part of the instructional program. 

    Resource Room Goals:

    •       To assist the students in becoming independent and successful 
    •       To monitor the students’ progress toward meeting the IEP goals and to assist the student in completing all courses of study
    •       To maintain communication with the student, parents, teachers, guidance counselors and other staff involved with the education of the student
    •       To introduce and develop skills needed for learning

     Grading:  All Resource room students will be graded on Participation/Productivity. No number grades are given.

    Expectations: 

    It is expected that students will:

     ~Be on time to each class.

    ~Put in your best effort for the entire class. 

    ~Maintain a "planner" or another organizational method to keep track of assignments, projects, and tests/quizzes. 

     This is your time to ask questions and work on your assignments.

    *You will need to check all of your Google Classrooms and email daily. You will work on your assignments as directed.  If you are in need of help, and not in class, make a note of your question(s). You can either wait until the next class, or you may contact me through email and I will get back to you asap! I am here for your success!
