Please join us on Friday, February 19 at 7:00 PM for an open house. This is a time to hear a presentation by Dr. Paula Flint, founder and director of The Flint Academy, about the unique aspects of our school. You will then have the opportunity to hear our classroom teachers explain and demonstrate the advantages of our school environment. You will get an up close look at the Flint-Charlotte Mason educational approach. It promises to be an interesting and informative evening, with refreshments and time for questions and socializing too. Complimentary childcare is provided. Space is limited, so please RSVP to 817-277-0620. Just a reminder that there is no school on Monday January 18, 2010 in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day and on February 15, 2010 for Presidents Day. Jacob's Lessons is a website that has free online learning games. I am using some of these games for teaching reading and math for some of our students, and they greatly enjoy them! You can visit the website here: http://www.jacobslessons.com/ Online Sensory Room I recently discovered this free online sensory room. You can create a relaxing scene complete with music or nature sounds. This program would be great for use a reward, or just to calm and de-stress. Click here to access the sensory room. You can view the whole "sensory house" here. |

Welcome to my website! I am the Autism Specialist at The Flint Academy. I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies (Elementary and Special Education) from the University of North Texas. I also completed a Master's Degree in Special Education with an emphasis in Autism Intervention and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) at UNT. This semester, I began working toward a Ph.D. in Special Education (with a focus on Autism) at the University of North Texas. I will be attending this program part-time while teaching at The Flint Academy. I am excited about the benefits that this increased knowledge will bring to our students and faculty.
My previous teaching and internship experiences include elementary special education (1st - 5th grades), Montessori preschool, general education Kindergarten, ABA Coach, and preschool inclusion for children with Autism. I have also given presentations at several conferences and events for teachers. These include:
My hobbies include reading, astronomy, crochet, playing the flute, and spending time with my family. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you for visiting my website and I hope you have a wonderful day! "By raising our voices together, we are creating a world that celebrates children for their abilities." - Diane Bubel |
