My Project

I have ALMOST everything I need to keep my academic and student centered classroom running smoothy.

Bilingual Books

Many of my students are learning English while they polish literacy skills in Spanish. It is so helpful to have young adult fiction in Spanish on hand so they can show what they know in their first language. Students will use these books in the beginning of the year as they are introduced to basic literary elements. Later they will be asked to practice literary elements using English in more advanced works.

Computer for the Class

The laptop computer will be on hand for when my students, who use googleclassroom on school issued computers, are having a tech issue or did not bring their computer. This allows them to create assignments, projects, and complete research as needed.

White Board Paper

The white board paper will be used to take notes as I teach these multi-level students who need extra scaffolding. I add this paper to available wall space to increase resources in a creative way.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
