I teach middle school L.A to students who have mild disabilities. I believe that a label does not define a person. My mission in life is to change people’s outlook on disabilities.

Oh spelling words

Today students took one of their many spelling tests.
There have been words in the past that consist of amusing mini words within a word.

There were two mini amusing words in this weeks vocabulary words:

1. Associate
Just look at the first three letters...now imagine having middle schoolers spell that word
Student: "Miss what are the first three letters"
Me: "you are sitting on it"

2. Quantity
Student: "what are the last two syllables in that word"
Me (without thinking, says the last two syllables out loud): "look of disgust toward that student"
