My Students
I teach in a Title 1 school. The majority of my students are from a low-income background. Every student in our school receives free breakfast and free lunch due to the overall poverty in our area. My students come from diverse educational and literacy experiences. For most of my students, my classroom provides their first educational experience.
Experiences in kindergarten provide the building blocks for a successful educational career!
Funding for tools in our school has been limited due to the impacts of Hurricane Irma. These students are eager to learn and ready to blossom into life long learners! I am searching to provide those tools for my students!
My Project
Literacy centers are a big part of the kindergarten day. During center time, the students work either independently or cooperatively with a small group to reinforce skills we are learning at the time. Students need centers that will foster learning and keep them engaged.
Self-correcting centers give them the autonomy to feel accomplished as they take charge of their learning!
The Hot Dots system will enable them to work indepedently while I work while I pull students for individual remediation. They will help my students on the level of learning that they are functioning at, differentiating the learning as needed. For instance, some students may need work on the ABS's while others are ready to blend sounds, read sight words, and begin the reading process.
These hot dots can also be used during the math block to reinforce number knowledge, patterns, shapes, and one-to-one correspondence during math centers.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
