My Students

The students in my class this year are coming in person to school and have adjusted to all the changes without question or complaints. We are a Title I school in a low income community. These students understand the need for social distancing and masks and despite the fact that they miss group work, they do their best to continue to learn and enjoy school. They love to read, write, do math and also have a love for the arts whether it be drama, singing, dance or art. They love to be creative and are learning social emotional skills during class to aid them in their lives, lessons we hope that they will remember as they continue in their education.

My Project

Some of the students in my class are on a lower level than the rest of their peers according to their reading level assessments. The two students I believe need the extra focus in a small group setting are one that is an ENL student and another who is a special education student.

These students have difficulty with word and letter recognition.

Due to this, they struggle with reading and writing and other content areas and don’t get the opportunity to reach their third grade goals.

These resources will be used to scaffold and assist them to help them improve in their literacy learning. These sight word games will keep them engaged and motivated as they learn new words to improve their vocabulary and give them the confidence to keep trying. The easy reader books will aid them in challenging themselves to practice reading on their own.

With your donations, you will be making a difference in the lives of these students. They are eager to improve and knowing that others are interested in their learning will motivate them even more.
