My Students

My students are active learners from different backgrounds and with different needs. They are a young bunch, and need constant engagement to keep focused and willing to learn. Kindergarten is the age when kids begin exploring their academics with excitement!

With the right resources, we can create a equitable learning environment in which all types of learners can benefit.

In kindergarten, most teachers are faced with the difficulty of having a very wide range of learners. When teachers are given tools to enhance their lessons, the possibilities for learning grow.

My Project

These leveled reading books will be essential to students in kindergarten. Leveled books are a major part of guided reading, which has not transitioned easily into an online format. But even with the challenges of distance learning, I will keep attempting to have guided reading small groups during distance learning.

Leveled books are an essential part of learning how to read in early childhood.

With multiple titles, various levels, and different genres of books, the kids will benefit from the variety of choices when learning and practicing their reading skills.
