My Students

Hello everyone! I'm working with an incredible, hardworking group of students who will be navigating an entirely new situation this back-to-school season. Every year, I try my best to make my classroom feel like a second home to my students by making it warm and welcoming. This year is different, I have to make sure that my students have anything they need to learn at home and in school!

We are all new to this hybrid learning model and I want to make sure that this transition is as easy and smooth as possible for my students.

I will be teaching 25 amazing students in a 3rd grade Dual Language class. I had the pleasure of being their 1st grade teacher so I am very excited to be their teacher again!! My students come from low income communities and most of them are ENL students.

My Project

These materials will make a difference in my students' lives because it will help them improve their reading and math skills. The reading activities will be helpful for my students because it will strengthen their phonetic and comprehension skills. These activities are very engaging and it will catch my student's attention and help them be successful.

All of these reading and math activities will be great for my students to achieve their maximum potential.

I will use them for my small group sessions virtually by projecting them in the document camera and also for my in person students.
