My Students

I am grateful to teach lovely scholars in a communication and broadcasting program at a Title One school in Los Angeles! My scholars are very inquisitive and eager learners and always strive to be better everyday! They are fearless when it comes to technology and need to be prepared to use a variety of tools to engage their world. To see their love for learning and willingness to overcome any challenges is truly inspiring. As their teacher, I strive to support all their needs to ensure they are able to achieve academic success.

My Project

These materials will be used both during distance learning and in the classroom. With an inclusive classroom library, I am able to help my students better connect to the ELA lessons that are being taught. Students will also be motivated to dive into these books during reading time. During distance learning, I will be reading these books to my students; which is very helpful because students may not have many books at home to read. Lastly, I will be able to better support my students through distance learning when having a better prepared teaching space. Thank you all for your support.
