My Students

A class that truly represents Brooklyn, my students are from a mix of cultures. Not only that, but my families chose to enroll their children in a dual language program. They are all committed to being bilingual and bi-literate in Spanish and English (some of the speak other languages as well).

My students are enthusiastic, curious, and caring, truly delightful!

They check in with each other and treat each other with respect. Each day, they come to school ready to learn.

My Project

My students are obsessed with books. They sneak into the book baskets for later units when I am not looking. They beg for the Weird Facts books on my shelf during Choice Time and Quiet Time. When I sit down to read with them, they love to tell me about the characters in their books or about the latest cool fact they learned about an animal, a historical event.

To respond to my students' demands, I put together a list of titles and topics that they have been begging for, as well as, some I know they will absolutely love when we start our research studies on animals.

This will really make a difference in my students excitement about reading!
