My Students

We live in the heart of an Indian Reservation in MT. Over 75% of my school population receives free and reduced lunches and is of native decent. Many of my students come from homes that are economically challenged. My students have challenges at home but our school provides a safe place with many long term teachers who live in their community. The teachers here know the kids, know their parents, and know the situations so everyone can work together to create the best learning environments to suit our students.

My Project

My school has revived our Title I program. This support program has not been available for the past 8 years. Many children have been falling behind without additional assistance. I work with kindergarten through 6th grade students that are struggling with reading.

I would like to have some games to make learning phonics, reading skills and language arts fun.

I am starting up this program with minimal supplies. I have access to worksheets and books for the students to complete and read but using games and other methods will give these students new ways to practice and strengthen their reading skills.
