My Students

My students from Inglewood, CA are enthusiastic about learning and have a zest for life. They are so candid and they are eager to become better readers and writers. Although they are young and although we are fully virtual, they are still so eager and willing to work and grow.

This year presents so many new challenges, and it is such a huge change for my little first graders, but they are transitioning into remote learning like champs.

I can't be more proud of them for what they have accomplished even in the first 3 months of school. They truly inspire me to be a better person and teacher.

My Project

As a new First Grade teacher, I want to have an abundance of books to offer and read to my students. With this project, I have the chance to start to build my library. I have specifically chosen these set of books to give my students the opportunity to experience and read a diverse set of books. I want my students to read books about how to to stand up for what is right and to be a leader. I also want my students to read books that include their culture, language, race, and traditions.

With this set of books, I can begin to build and grow my library with meaningful and purposeful books for my First Graders.
