My Students

I'm apart of team of ENL teachers in a Title I school and I service students in grades 1 - 3. All of my students are English Language Learners and a portion of them have special needs.

My students are a unique bunch of excited and motivated learners, all eager to learn English and develop foundational skills.

They come from various cultural backgrounds and have a variety of home languages and academic needs and abilities. They love playing educational games and collaborating in small groups. My students are eager to explore topics by using various classroom supplies and manipulatives. They love to learn new vocabulary and new information. I strive to create fun and engaging learning opportunities to support all of my students and provide supplies and hands on activities for them to engage in.

My Project

This shelf will make a world of difference for our classroom organization. Students will be able to access the shelves to get any items they may need for a variety of projects and assignments. Students will build independence by gathering their own supplies from this helpful and organized shelf.

This shelving unit will be used by students learning on sight and will allow them to have access to learning materials and classroom supplies.

This will help students to maintain safe distances from one another and use their own class supplies.
