My Students

My students come into first grade from many different educational backgrounds. A listening center helps bridge that gap for many different reasons.

I teach a group of diverse learners who include learners who have special needs, students who are gifted, students with speech deficits, and students who are English as Second Language learners.

These students attend a charter school where hands-on differentiated learning is key to their success!

My Project

These 6 interactive Tag Reading books and the Tag Storybook Set will help my students stay excited about reading! Some of the Tag Readers that we have now are falling apart and have seen better days. The new ones that I am requesting for my students include readers that help students zone in on specific skills and help reinforce what has been taught throughout the day and school year. These books help my students be successful for so many different reason! They allow my students that are on a higher level challenge themselves by reading the book to themselves first and only using the tag pen to help with challenging words. They help my lower level learners by allowing the entire book to be read to them, and allow them to play games that help reinforce skills that they need to become readers!

Reading is very important in first grade and through your donations to this project, you will help 22 students become fluent first grade readers while they have fun reading stories that they enjoy!
