My Students

Welcome to “The World of Extraordinary Learners!” As a Title I first/second-grade self-contained classroom of 12, we may be small in number, but MIGHTY in learning, personality, and presence! My students are readers, writers, explorers, inquirers, and creative individuals with unique needs. In my classroom, the dis/abilities present include speech and language, ADHD, and learning disabilities. All of my students are from Hispanic and/or Black/brown backgrounds and many of my students come from single-family homes, non-English speaking parents, and low socioeconomic status (all contributing factors that cause disparities within the education system).

Despite the hardships my students face outside of the classroom, they remain positive and enthusiastic learners who are excited to come into school and learn each and every day.

The work we do in this classroom includes building relationships, creating a welcoming environment, and accessing the general education curriculum through differentiation and developmentally appropriate practice. This is not only our classroom, but our second home, our safe place, and refuge. We celebrate our tribulations. We celebrate our successes. And most importantly, we celebrate each other.

My Project

This past school year my classroom relied heavily on computers to provide therapy sessions for students. Unfortunately, our classroom set of headphones did not work. It goes without saying, it was difficult to teach while students received services on the computer without headphones. While teaching, our classroom needed to remain quiet, which, as you can imagine, was challenging! Furthermore, without headphones, it was harder for students to focus on the therapy sessions at hand.

Headphones would allow students to focus on their computer task whether it be a therapy session, virtual lesson, or interactive academic learning activity without distraction.

With headphones, it would allow the classroom to still carry on as usual without disrupting those on the computers.
