My Students

My students have a wide variety of learning styles and ability levels, ranging from pre-kindergarten to third grade. Some of my students have special needs. I teach a classroom full of energetic first graders in a rural community.

My students need a class set of animal research books that will help me teach about animal welfare and compassion for living things in a hands-on way.

These texts will help provide a lasting lesson about compassion for animals and conservation as students delve into animal research projects. These animal books are on a first grade reading level and include many age-appropriate text features such as maps, diagrams, photographs, captions and a glossary. It is my goal to engage and support all learners and their wide variety of learning styles.

My Project

As we delve into informational writing and animal research, these new learning materials will make my students more compassionate toward animals and other living things!
