My Students

Our 5th-grade classroom of elementary students consists of culturally different backgrounds in a school that has over 900 students. We are located in a suburb of a major, capital city in an HOA community. This group of students also includes students with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD).

The students are inquisitive, compassionate, and creative.

Some have an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) that requires positive motivation to help them be successful in a mainstream classroom. It is beneficial to their social and emotional learning having materials that introduce them to the world outside of their community.

My Project

"Scholastic News, Storyworks, and Science Spin are standards-aligned, flexible print, and digital teaching tools. Each fascinating issue comes with carefully crafted videos, Teacher's Guides, activity sheets, and learning games that launch powerful skill-building lessons. Plus! We help you reach every reader with a lower reading level, Text-to-Speech audio, and ELL support." ~Scholastic This could not be said better.

Students will discover the world around them by reading about national news, the world of science and new technologies, and material that consists of many reading genres.

This will be an especially helpful resource for students while distance learning.
