My Students

The beauty of working in an extremely diverse school is getting to learn about different cultures and work with a melting pot of students. When every student in my class comes together, they are always learning from each other.

Being in an emergent classroom, it helps me appreciate teaching them even more as I can connect to how they are learning.

My students are always trying their best to learn the English language through visuals and active listening. I am always learning from my students and using what they teach me by observing them to help me better plan my lessons for them. Understanding their struggles, I try my best to make learning fun for them and hope that they enjoy going to school.

My Project

I have a class of ENL students and they need books that are on their level. Our classroom library needs books to help students learn to read and love to read.

The books in this project will allow students to use the skills they learn during our phonics block to help them read.

Students need books that are lower leveled so that they can read books independently. My library also needs to be culturally responsive to represent the students in my class. When students see themselves in books, they can relate to it.
