Getting to know me

Hello.  I am Regina F. Toscani, currently working at Baldi Middle School, Philadelphia, PA.  For the past four years  I have been working with children with significant cognitive delays.  Some of my students also have a physical and/or sensory disability. Many other teachers believe that this population is "too difficult" or "frustrating" to teach.  These teachers are flat-out wrong.  My students are a joy to work with and allows me to be creative in my teaching.
