My Students

Our school goes from Pre-K all the way to 8th grade. At such a large school funding sometimes is hard to find for each and every classroom. We are a tight knit, school community with many dedicated teachers and staff members who put their hearts and souls into our school. Our students are from all different ethnic as well as socioeconomic backgrounds. In my classroom, we are a 4th grade 12.1 class. My students are unique with amazing personalities, and strive to do their personal best despite the varying disabilities they may have. Despite the many challenges my students face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students the foundation they need to succeed in the future.

My Project

My students are in fourth grade 12.1 class and many of them are not reading on grade level and struggle to read. I would like them to be amazing, wild readers and watch their reading stamina progress throughout the school year! As their classroom teacher, I hope to create a warm, welcoming, reading paradise for students to develop lifelong skills of reading for pleasure and information. I love to have different genres of books for children to choose from. Not all students have the same interests so it is important to have a great selection for the students to choose from. These books will be used for independent reading, guided reading, as well as read aloud stories. I hope to create a place that is welcoming, where their imaginations can grow wild and can encourage them to reach their fullest potential. The more choices a student has, the more they will read. Children love having a large selection of books to choose from. These books cover different parts of our curriculum as well!
