My Students
"Si se puede" is the slogan we have in my transitional bilingual classroom in Trenton, New Jersey. By providing opportunities for students of diverse cultural and economic backgrounds, these curious learners can believe that their goals are possible to achieve.
All my students have immigrated to the United States to access both the economic and educational advantages that exist here.
Their limited English proficiency is not limiting their desire to learn. They are eager to learn the required curriculum as they are developing their skills in the English language.
These students have been in the country for no more than three years and most have been here for less than a year. It is important that they participate in engaging and authentic activities to acquire their new language with confidence. As their teacher, I strive to provide them with an educational environment that fosters this growth!
My Project
My students need to learn about financial literacy. To create enthusiasm for the subject while teaching money management skills, I plan to use board games and storybooks. Board Games like Life, Monopoly, and Pay Day will help students learn money concepts while having fun. While the storybooks will bring in concepts of money management in the stories students read.
The selection of board games and books will give students choice and encourages independence in learning important money management concepts that are necessary for them to master so they can become financially responsible adults.
These games will also teach valuable social skills in the classroom.
