My Students

My students come from a variety of different backgrounds. They are enthusiastic about learning in our classroom and at home. They are creative and innovative. They love sharing their work and successes using technology in our classroom. They enjoy working together and helping each other grow.

My students love using literature and technology to collaborate on learning projects and showcase their abilities and growth.

They are excited and eager to push themselves and apply knowledge in new and unique ways. My students are the future!

My Project

My students are in need of explicit, intensive reading intervention as a result of lost learning during the COVID pandemic. Many of my students struggle to decode words. These Reading Rods will provide hands-on, concrete exposure to words and their patterns.

Hands-on practice with phonics patterns will allow my students to build the skills that they need to be successful readers.

By incorporating these tools into my small group and whole class instruction I can help my students bridge the gap they have experienced during this pandemic. The hands-on practice will help them become fluent and independent readers.
