My Students

My first grade students are a bundle of joy who enter the classroom ready to learn. I work at a Title I school that is located in the heart of Chinatown, NY. Our school strives to ensure that students receive rigorous instruction that is inclusive, engaging, and culturally responsive. The students are predominantly Asian and come from immigrant families. The majority of the students are English Language Learners who are seeking to become stronger readers, writers, and mathematicians!

My Project

The students in my class currently range from Emergent to Level H readers. Help me build my classroom library with leveled books to help my students fall in love with reading. Students have been book shopping twice a week in class. However, due to the shortages of books many students have been rereading the same few books each week.

Providing new and grade-appropriate books will allow my students to get excited about reading!

Books are a great escape for students to dive into different settings and meet new characters. Help support my students by giving them the gift of reading!
