My Students

I teach at a diverse urban public school. The students at my school are goofy, kind, curious, and eager to learn new things.

Not only are these students exciting to be around, but they are also some of the most caring, hardworking, and curious first graders who bring their open-mindedness into the classroom each and every day.

As their teacher, I strive every day to motivate my students to achieve their highest potential through reading, writing, math, science, music, and exploration!

My Project

My students have come to love independent reading time and many have grown fond of several books on this list. So much so, that sometimes they have to wait for several friends to finish perusing the pages!

This project will bring a fresh set of reads to our classroom, and encourage students to continue building their love for reading and exploring newly published books, as well as classic favorites!

This list includes favorites like The Good Egg, The Bad Seed, The Cool Bean, and several inspiring social emotional books! I hope to continue to emphasize that even great readers can continue to read and grow to love more books than they ever thought possible! After all, books are the BEST!
