My Students

My classroom consists of many different levels of students. I have some students who require enrichment activities to intrigue their interests and curiosities at a higher level and some students who thrive better off of a more hands-on and tactile approach. All of my students become fully engaged when lessons are presented in a kinesthetic approach.

My students all seem to learn best when working together with partners or in small groups.

They teach each other their own learning styles. Lessons that are tied into the standards, presented with a "hook" or "phenomenon" spark their interests and helps them begin the learning. These hands-on tools enhance that learning and help my students retain the information longer.

My Project

My classroom library needs some repair and renovation. These leveled readers will help my students meet their needs. The Step Into Reading books are all leveled and have both Fiction and Non-Fiction stories. My students' learning can be enhanced with these books, supplemented with the "Who Am I" series books.

Help my students ignite their love of books with these brand, new adventures!

Their hearts and minds will enjoy both these factual nonfiction readers, along with their favorite animated super heroes! A child's love for reading can be enhanced with the availability of a variety of books to choose from.
