Ms. Tuckwiller's Classroom Edit display name

I compare my first grade classroom to a one-room schoolhouse. I have an average of twenty diverse learners, all working on different levels, skills, and paces between reading, writing, math, spelling, science, social studies, technology, and basic child development. I encourage all my students to work at their individual levels. They all have specific skills to build upon whether it be high level reading or writing or basic fine motor skills. I engage them with hands-on learning and differentiated choice. They have many opportunities to build upon their strengths. I provide time for communication both orally and written. I also provide time for play where the students are able to develop social and problem solving skills among themselves. I am very structured within our daily routines and schedule, but within these parameters, they are given choice, independence, and responsibility.
