Welcome to Mrs. Levine's Horizon classroom! I am looking forward to a wonderful year working with your child and helping him/her grow academically, socially and behaviorally.
The Horizon program was developed to effectively meet the needs of students with autism spectrum disorders. We use the Autism Curriculum Encyclopedia to provide individualized interventions that target each child's needs. The Autism Curriculum Encyclopedia utilizes an applied behavior analysis (ABA) based approach to support our students and help them succeed. In addition, all members of the Horizon team work in collaboration to put students first and help them reach their goals over a wide range of skills. I feel very lucky to be apart of such a special program!
In our class, students are expected to meet grade level requirements of the Common Core, including Teacher's College for reading and writing and Envisions for math. This years rigorous standards are going to be a challenge and require students to meet higher expectations than ever before. It is important that teachers and parents work together to help support the children over the course of the year and celebrate every moment of progress. Students will benefit from using similar practices in the classroom and at home.
If you ever need to reach me for questions, comments, or concerns you can email me at [email protected], or use the communication books that are sent home daily.
