My Students

I teach the English portion of our school's Spanish Immersion Program. This means I have a total of 44 wonderful 5- to 6-year-old learners, with two classes of 22 students. I absolutely love teaching language arts and sharing my passion for reading and writing with them. I am so excited when my students learn to read and love to read and write! My kindergarten students attend a high poverty Pre-K to 5th grade elementary school. I have a very diverse population of students in my classroom. Many of my students come from high poverty homes and are not given opportunities to engage in appropriate social behaviors with same age peers.

My Project

My students need birthday crowns and colored paper. A simple treat such as a birthday crown makes little ones so happy on their special day.

We also need a variety of colored paper for our media literacy project.

Students will be using the paper to create a variety of posters to advertise and persuade people to eat their favorite food. This project will teach students how to use pictures and words to persuade an audience. It will teach my kindergarten friends about how influential the media can be and how they can use words and pictures to be just as persuasive. With your generosity and support we can make this project possible.
