The materials will come from an anti-racist, decolonized perspective when speaking about geography and cultural issues. The level of information ranges from first to fourth-grade equivalent and I will provide additional resources if the student is interested in going deeper. I am a former special education teacher and created and implemented a social studies curriculum for middle school students with disabilities.
