My Students

The majority of my students are poverty stricken with very little opportunity for life experiences outside of their own.

They are the students that want to get ahead in life, want to make a better future for themselves but do not have the means outside of school.

They are the students that although they do not have much, are grateful for what they do have and appreciative of what is given to them. They are the students, that if given the chance, will make the world a better place.

My Project

In my classroom, I strive to provide my students with a variety of culturally relevant and diverse novels to read for novel study. I also strive to provide high interest, yet complex text that challenge their thinking. The more my students can engage with the text, the higher their comprehension. Not only will this novel Heroes, Gods and Monsters of the Greek Myths help serve my ELA standards, but it will also serve our Social Studies standards as well since we study Ancient Civilizations in 6th grade. I feel that this novel I have chosen will be a high interest, yet challenging text, helping to further improve their comprehension.
