My Students

I cherish my students in more ways than I can explain here. One thing that makes my EL (English learner) students special is how different they all are from one another. They are from every type of background you can imagine and come from all parts of the world. During the normal school day, students come together anywhere from one hour to thirty minutes each day to build their English in the areas of reading, writing, speaking, and listening.

I strive every day to grow them not only as students but also as people.

Every advantage we can provide for our EL students helps.

My Project

This school year we are hoping to bring back EL family game night to our school. During this night, students bring their families to school for pizza and to play board games. It is a fun night for families to sit down together, socialize and have fun! It was a huge success prior to the pandemic.

When students leave the family night, we send them off with a bag full of books and other learning tools that they can use at home to build their English language in the areas of speaking, reading, and writing.

This project is requesting bookmarks, games, and puzzles. These activities will be added to bags for each student. The bags will be individually designed for each EL student in the building. They will include leveled reading books, games, and other learning resources for the students to use at home.
