Sustainable Urban Chef's Garden

Funded Jul 15, 2024

My students are considered ESOL, ELD, and English III. My students often have challenges that require specialty book selections and special projects as well as other special needs therefore require an adapted method of learning. My students love to read, however they are learning to read, write and speak English at the same time as learning their grade curriculum for ELA. I have found that providing students with a wide selection of reading materials encourages students to be more participatory in our class discussions.

They say that a great moment in teaching students to read is when they read without an assignment or a promised grade. I believe that with your generosity, our classroom has that opportunity and students will avail themselves of all the materials you have thus provided.

I look forward to seeing students reading material of their own choosing!”

With gratitude,
