Reflection 1

Legacy School

Legacy School is a school for pregnant teens and teen mothers. They have an in-school daycare / nursery program. The students only come to school for a few hours a day. One of the challenges for Ms. Yazee is  that many students are very behind in their education. Students often miss class for doctor’s appointments, family issues, and some have to miss class for a few weeks when their delivery day comes.

Because there are not very many students, the teachers are involved in multiple subject areas. Ms. Yazee is actually a math teacher, but has to teach biology, botany, and a few other subjects. I am really excited to know that she will most likely use every single thing I can create for her.

One thing I’m worried about is how to make the content in my projects fit her specific need. They need to be challenging to the students that are ahead of the curve, yet simple enough for the rest of the students to understand.
