My Students

I teach in a community school located in a high needs area. My students receive special education services. Each school year, I find that my kids have a tremendous amount of energy. They enjoy learning but need constant hands-on engagement throughout any lesson.

My kids are so special to me.

They need access to resources that will allow them to learn in all modalities. Every day I go to work, I want to make it a positive experience for them because that is what each one of them deserves.

New materials will increase the learning in my class and will allow my students to become excited and interested in learning in a way that allows them to discover and appreciate all that education has to offer.

My Project

A listening center is something I have always wanted to add to my classroom. My students enjoy listening to books read to them on their iPads, but I find that it doesn't increase their love of reading an actual book as much as I wish it would. A listening center would allow my students to follow along while listening to a book that is read aloud by someone other than myself.

My students work very hard.

I am teaching in a third-grade class with students that are reading on a kindergarten level. A listening center would enable them to access higher-level texts because they would have it read to them, which would eliminate the stress of having to decode words they have difficulty with at this time. The clipboards with storage space would allow groups to organize their work as they complete it after listening to a book in this center. Having a listening center would allow me to make our reading period more engaging for all learners.
