Ms. Sandy Rogers’ Classroom Edit display name

More than three quarters of my students live in low income households. Due to a lack of funding, this is resulting in a lack of literacy for my students. Most of my students are ELL and ESL students. That being said, working with intriguing materials will, in theory, better motivate my students to read and write. Inhale reading, exhale more proficient writing. I teach at a Title One school in Del Valle, Texas. I severely lack book and supporting materials in my classroom. Due to the fact that my students are in 8th grade and read four grade levels below where they should be at, I am encouraged to promote a better literacy program for my struggling students. For my project, I want my students to have a class set of books that we can read in during class. By making this a class priority and project, I can facilitate the learning of my students. We will have a literacy circle during class and will have open class discussion on what we are reading. Also, to aid in writing, I will have my students write open-ended responses during our class discussions over the given works. Also, Mythology is frequently referenced in literature. Having Mythology materials in my classroom will be used to build my students knowledge so they can understand, and recognize references in the works will be studying.
