My Students

All our students come from low income families and receive free school breakfast and lunch. During this pandemic, their parents are unable to provide resources because many are out of work. My students are smart, creative, clever, and very enthusiastic about learning. The majority of my students read and write below grade level. They would benefit from a variety of books to help them succeed. As of March 23rd, my students have been learning at home. School is closed for the remainder of the 2019-2020 academic year due to the COVID-19 virus. This may continue with hybrid learning in September, at the start of the 2020-2021 academic school year, and students will need all the resources they can get. This presents a challenge for my students and their families as most of my students do not have access to basic supplies and books. Public libraries are closed indefinitely and students need to read to avoid a reading slide.

Since the parents can't get library books during these uncertain times, I would love to expand my class library to allow students to borrow books and develop their love for reading.

My Project

Since the quarantine, students have been learning from home. It seems like returning to school in September may mean coming to class in shifts and/or studying at home some of the time. Students will need an abundance of resources, including physical books, that they will need to read in order to learn about main characters and the changes they go through over time. In order to do so, students will need to bring books home to read, so they can discuss these changes with their classmates on an online platform or once they are physically in school. I will need numerous copies of the same book in order for the students to hold group or class discussions.

Providing students with a physical copy of the book will help bring ownership to their learning.

They will be able to refer to the text when talking to others through an online platform or in class. Having series books will help them understand the changes main characters go through over time.
