Mrs. Sotiriou PS 69 Jackson Heights
Jackson Hts., NY Grades PreK-2

I am a general education first grade teacher. I teach in a Pre-K to 5 schools in NY.

It's my second year in this school and this year I took over another classroom. Because I was still teaching the same grade, I wasn't able to bring up my materials that were purchased new for my classroom. As a result, I don't have full set materials for the class and I don't have a working radio.

I have so many books on tape that really hook the children into listening to the story. The radio that I have in the classroom right now rips the tapes and destroys them. I have calculators and dry erase erasers, but I only have enough for half the class and we spend valuable time sharing and sometimes not getting along because someone wants to go first. Also, there are so many cultures in NY today that I think it's extremely important for students to be aware of them. Learning about them through music is a great way.

Your help with ensure that my students use valuable time to learn new concepts/ideas. Students will also learn about the different cultures of the world and how we should all get along.
