My Students

My students are eager learners who are curious about the world around them.

I have 28 4th grade students who come from a variety of cultural backgrounds.

Some of these students are English Language Learners. Students in this class also range in academic ability from Gifted students to students on Individualized Education Programs. While many of these students have access to current events at home, several do not.

My Project

With the new Common Core Standards, we are asking that students develop comprehension of informational texts. Students will have the opportunity to learn about current events through age-appropriately written articles in Time for Kids. It is also full of articles that are of particular interest to their age group.

My students will be able to have informed conversations, amongst their peers, about real-life issues.

Not only will this build their comprehension skills, but will help build their confidence as well.
