My Students
Welcome to my page! I appreciate you taking the time to learn about my class! We are a Title I school located in Georgia. We have a variety of ethnic backgrounds within our school. Our school currently has 100% poverty rate.
Given the opportunity to meet my students, you would quickly fall in love with them just like I have.
Even though my students face difficulties in a variety of ways daily, each and every one of them come to school excited and motivated to learn. I am blown away daily by how much they are capable of already at such a young age.
My Project
Having these books will help my first graders stay interested in reading and having a love for books! These books are about friendships, emotions/feelings, diversity among people, and nonfiction books.
These books will foster my students' learning by learning more about each others' differences and similarities, feelings, animals, and a love for reading that they didn't know they had.
These materials will also make a difference in my students' learning by being aware of each others' differences and similarities. Diversity is very important, so learning about their world (people, animals, environments) via books and then applying it to one another, or in the classroom is what retains their learning best. What's a better way to learn than books?
