My Students

Whole group instruction does not provide differentiation and individualized learning for my scholars, who range from emergent readers to fluent, chapter book readers. Small group instruction, with practice on technology usage, will maximize the learning for these scholars who are eager to learn.

My students hail from diverse backgrounds, from "military brats" to longshoremen offspring, to families who have lived in the neighborhood of our school community for decades.

Because of this, our school is considered a transient school with many students coming in and out, based on where their parents need to be. This causes inconsistency in their learning, and often the students suffer and lose out on the learning. Nevertheless, they are eager to work together and learn, absorb what's happening in the classroom, and yearn to belong. Providing these scholars with consistent small group instruction, with this technology component, will enhance their learning and maximize each learning minute individualized to each student's specific needs. They will benefit greatly with the usage of technology in the classroom environment on a daily basis.

My Project

Many people take a basic pen, paper, and calming space for granted but the ownership and accountability for one’s own materials take discipline and pride. I am asking for basic classroom supplies, including the space for our mini lessons (hence, the rug) to provide the students the stepping stone to practice organization, pride of ownership, and responsibility that will, hopefully, become habit as they go to middle school, high school, and beyond. Many of my students lack the basic necessities necessary to be prepared for school. Providing them with these basic materials and making them accountable for them will help in their success!
