I have a class of 23 first grade scholars. They benefit from the free school breakfast and lunch due to their family's economic needs. One student is a native English speaker and the rest represent multicultural families, English is their second language. Thus, it is imperative that I provide opportunities for my scholars to have rich English experiences. The class is enthusiastic about learning and love coming to school. They are very inquisitive and can't wait for their favorite part of the day, collaborative work time. It is here where they explore, ponder, and put into action what they learn throughout the year. While they work in teams I pull small groups to individualize instruction and meet their varying needs. Their reading abilities range from pre-primers to above grade level. They require learning materials that maximize their potential, help them stay motivated, and encourage independence.
