My Students

I love teaching kindergarten! I teach at a Title I-funded, public school in Georgia. The student population I serve is 98% African-American and 2% Hispanic. A full 95% of my class falls under the category of receiving free or reduced price lunch. Despite their many economic challenges, when they walk into my classroom, they are taught to reach beyond the stars.

My kindergarten students love learning through interactions with a variety of hands-on materials.

I am truly happy and fortunate to work with this unique and diverse group of students. The achievements of my students inspire me and I am happy to continue to improve myself as a teacher for them.

My Project

My school believes in differentiating all instruction to best meet the needs of all the learners in our classrooms. Reading mini-lessons and guided reading are a huge part of how I help children learn to read. I have some texts that are very helpful in supporting me as I become a better reading teacher. The Fountas and Pinnell Reading Minilessons book will support me as I teach on the cutting edge of children's learning! There is literally no better way to engage students and support them on their journey to becoming lifelong learners.

Help me become stronger and more knowledgeable in the theory and practice of guided reading so that my children can become lifelong learners and readers.

This book will have a direct and immediate impact on the instruction that I deliver and in turn the teaching that students receive. Not only will this book allow me to hone my teaching skills, but I will also learn how to provide students with responsive teaching. Enhancing teaching skills will have a hugely positive impact on my students. Please help me better my teaching practices so that I can provide students with the top-notch education they deserve.
