My Project

Each of our students is a shining star in our classroom, bringing a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. Every day, their commitment, curiosity, and passion for education motivate us. They began upon a journey as recent immigrants, learning a new language and a new social environment. It is truly inspiring to see how brave and focused they are. The Problem-solving STEM kids will encourage students to express themselves through storytelling, which improves their confidence and language skills.

Playing games containing rhymes enhances phonological awareness and rhythm comprehension in my students.

By promoting fun interactions with words, rhymes, and sounds, language development can be promoted.

The items requested in this project will also engage students in socialization activities to improve their ability to speak the language by employing patterns of rhyme and storytelling methods to produce a successful, enjoyable, and attractive language learning environment.

These resources promote a sense of belonging and acceptance. Encouraging cooperative play through resource-efficient decision-making games will improve the learning environment.

Finally, I hope this project will assist recently immigrated students in adjusting to a new language and society. We hope to make language learning more approachable and comfortable for them by offering thoughtful activities that promote peer relationships.
