My Students

Creativity, imagination, problem solving and collaboration are key components to authentic learning in our classroom. I have high expectations for every student. It is my responsibility to provide a variety of learning opportunities to help each child meet or exceed their goals. Our school is a K-2 school with approximately 1,100 children enrolled.

We have a diverse population of ethnic backgrounds, a growing ELL population, a high percentage of students who need accelerated learning opportunities, and students who need reading and math interventions to help them establish a firm foundation for successful learning.

My Project

I will use these books to teach reading in small group and large group lessons. Students will read aloud with a buddy, analyze character traits and plot, summarize what they read, and create iMovies based on what they have learned. They will also keep reading response journals from the perspective of the historical figures and/or characters in the books.

Students come to the classroom with very different experiences, reading levels, and circumstances, yet all are expected to meet the objectives established by the state.

Using quality children’s literature, I can help them understand difficult situations, enable individual students to transcend their own challenges, and teach students what others have experienced in the past to change the world for the better. These books will provide much needed support to help students understand social studies and science concepts, as well.
