My Project

Since so much of the traditional curriculum is not geared toward my multicultural students my goal is to try to create a positive mindset regarding where their families are from. I have a large world map on the wall and every year we pinpoint where students' families were from before moving to our state. This map now has hundreds of holes and needs replacing. The majority of my students are from Spanish speaking countries and I'd like to figure out a way to make that portion of the world map a little larger so they can actually see the tiny countries from which many come. Therefore, I really would like the individual continent posters to have achieve this goal.

I am also asking for sight word books to help struggling students learn and practice beginning sight words.

In addition, I am asking for a mindfulness activity book and a book about paying attention. Lastly, I am one white board short of a class set.
