My Students
I teach fifth grade reading in one of the best rural schools in Oklahoma. My students are a diverse group with varied levels of learning. Our classroom is a space where students enjoy coming to learn. We are a Title I school with the majority of our students receiving free lunch.
These students have huge hearts and love to learn in non-traditional ways, such as room transformations, integrating the arts into our lessons, and project-based learning.
My students have curiosity, creativity, compassion, and positive attitudes. They are truly amazing people. My school is wonderfully supportive of the active hands-on learning that we do in our classroom. I couldn't ask for a better learning environment for these students. We are truly a community!
My Project
My students love to read! We consistently have guided reading groups, literature circles, book clubs and whole group novels going on during our day.
These teacher resource books will offer guidance and new ideas to enhance our already flourishing reading program!
Each book is authored by leaders in the reading field and gives support in each of the main components of reading. The Fluency book will help with new ideas using poetry, chants and music. The Guided Reading book and flip chart will be useful as we explore new strategies to help my students reach higher goals.
Our classroom theme is Superhero Readers and this rug will give my students a cozy place to sit and read every day during our D.E.A.R. reading time!
More than half of students from low‑income households
