My Project

My ELA class needs a little more organizing materials as we use some content/reference books to read and learning broadly. With my teaching, my learners are able to experience unique techniques to help by passing their learnings to new generations (their juniors). My learners will visit the community for reading and spread the good practices for learning encouragement. They are reading the books in libraries, parks and the play places for the junior learners.

I have introduced this reading in moderate ratio where my learners are able to increase the skills of learning support the communities for exploring the knowledge around the world and ready with information of different interest areas.

The bookcases will be used for keeping the Dictionaries, Encyclopedias, Fictions and Non-Fictions organized, as well as narratives practices for learning analytics. However, with the use of timer, they can develop their fluency and finding the best environment to manage their work with groups. With the use of timers, my learners will develop their reading fluency and become functional for the literacy skills in their unique way.

I am trying my best to support with variety of learning materials. Hence, with your support I can help them grow their skills of reading and grow the interest.
