My Students

I am an IEP Teacher at PS 31 in Brooklyn, NY. The majority of our students receive Title I funding and many are English Language Learners. My role is to provide RTI services. Therefore, I work specifically with students in small groups to provide them with additional support within the subject areas in which they struggle.

My work with students involves intervention services.

Some of my students receive special education services, while others are working in a small group in order to remediate skills which would prevent a referral to special education. Regardless of their classification, all of my students are hard workers who want to learn and bridge the gap so that they can reach grade level.

My Project

These fun games will give my students an opportunity to engage in fun/social activities with their friends while reinforcing the skills taught in class at the same time. So many of my students are struggling readers. When they are faced with a list of words or a paragraph, they are easily discouraged upon immediately viewing the page. Providing opportunities for games will enable them to practice while having fun in a less intimidating manner. These games will be utilized as incentives for students after completing the main lessons in class.
