My Students

The students I teach are in a TK/K combination class! They are in a Korean Dual Language Program at a Title I school in the heart of Los Angeles. Fun fact: Some students are learning their 3rd language! To describe them in one word: AMAZING!

My Project

The books that I have chosen are based on students' interests from the past years and teachers' recommendations. Through these books, students will not only learn how to be a reader but also find the joy in reading. Interactive read alouds will allow them to explore these books with me, learning the world of books and how fun they can be. Independent reading will give students the opportunity to choose a book and find the joy in reading.

Friends in our classroom learn that books in our library are to be treated with care and love.

By continuing to provide them with new books to read, I hope that our Kindergarten friends will keep reading and even share books they love with their friends.
