My Students

My students are curious, energetic English Language Learners with diverse backgrounds . More than 65% of them are from low income families. They love to come to the library to discover new books, characters and settings. The library helps them to increase their language and critical thinking skills and spark their creativity.

My students need to books to take them to the farthest reaches of their imagination.

They need new stories that are relatable and relevant and of this century.

My Project

Flipped Fairytales will be part of a theme unit. Our students will engage in many exciting activities based on these flipped Fairytales.

Students will conduct book talks using digital tools such as flip grids, develop character interviews using iMovie and ultimately write and publish flipped stories of their own.

They will be able to take charge of their own learning by having the opportunity to engaging fellow students through a series of scavenger hunts, web quests, video clips and question and answer sessions. This unit will activate creative expression and deep understanding of story structure allowing students to apply these skills to other genres in the library such as historical fiction.
