My Students

Our school is in a high-risk Title I school in an urban setting. We have 40% of our students living in temporary housing. I teach reading with very limited resources and time restraints. It rectify this we are creating thematic units that connect the reading, writing, and social studies curriculum.

This is an opportunity for our scholars to have a strong thematic unit of study that goes across the curriculum with the goal of doing less in order to go deeper.

Our school was the first Bucket Filling school in our city that focuses on Social-Emotional Learning to create mindful citizens. Creating thematic units enable us to build in the content with global and social themes. Scholars have rich discourse and debate about themselves and the world around them.

My Project

I will use the reading books sets to support the 4th grade social studies content. They will be used in flexible, small group reading instruction when teaching our informational reading and writing curriculum. The book "Encounter", will be the touchstone text used as a read aloud. The goal is to teach a more thematic unit that will allow scholars to go deeper into the content and end with a project base learning assessment. As we teach this unit scholars will be learning to close read. They will be answering critical thinking questions giving evidence from the text to support their thinking.
