My Students

Our students are a very diverse group of students with all different kinds of talents, backgrounds, and interests. We have many students from other countries that speak more than one language or that speak little to no English.

We have gifted students, students with learning disabilities, and students on the Autism spectrum.

Each one is so special in his/her own way. Our students are each individuals and very unique puzzle pieces that come together to make the most interesting picture.

My Project

Finding quality texts for the students to read and work with can be difficult, especially when looking for current news or science texts. Scholastic has two magazines that can fill in for the lack of texts available. The magazines also expose students to current events and use text features that they are less familiar with. The articles are great for whole group lessons, small group lessons, or independent practice. The science magazine reinforces concepts taught in class.

The magazines are a fun way to encourage reading and teach strategies and concepts.
