Help me give my students the resources they need to enhance their reading comprehension!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Baez's classroom raised $268
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students come from the economically and culturally diverse small city of Hoboken. They are the highest academic need students in middle school and receive resource room services as a result of their IEPs. They are highly motivated and are eager to feel comfortable in a school setting. Many of them have learning disabilities or attention disorders that make learning core subjects in a general education classroom more difficult. As a result, they receive either push-in (I help them in their classroom) or pull-out (they receive 1:1 or small group help in another room).
Despite any documented difficulties these students may have, their motivation and optimism for the learning process drive all the teachers they encounter to be the absolute best support to their learning.
They inspire me to seek out the best supports for them, across all fields of research.
My Project
It can be hard to determine the best course of action for students who are struggling with reading comprehension. When it comes to decoding or phonics there are clear resources and paths to take to support student learning. Comprehension, however, can be trickier to tackle. As a result, these resources will provide myself, other general education teachers, and students with instantly applicable tools in both whole group, and small group lessons.
By combining teacher professional development books with small group guided reading paired texts, students will be able to make gains in their understanding of the rich literature that they will encounter in their academic careers.
