My Students
Our students come from a variety of different economic backgrounds, with over 80% of our students receiving free lunch, making us a Title I school.
Our school is an ethnically diverse school in Washington, DC.
Students speak different languages at home, including English, Spanish, Amharic, and French. Since our students are so diverse, I'd also like for their learning to be diverse so we're always doing projects and different activities to expand their knowledge. We're lucky to be in the lively city of Washington, DC so there are many opportunities for us to explore our city and learn from our beautiful community.
My Project
During this time of school closures due to the COVID-19 virus we need to keep our students reading! Not only are schools closed, but so are libraries and bookstores. My students are in low income communities and they're used to having our school libraries open to get their reading done. Now that this is no longer an option we, as teachers, need to send our students the things they need in order to continue their learning uninterrupted.
We, as teachers, need these books to send to our the students who are bilingual and in desperate need of books to continue to learn and to grow as English learners!
These are books that are in their interest and are both fiction and non-fiction. These books will keep my students engaged in their learning and excited to have something sent to them by their teacher. These students are also in need of technology and these simple laptops will help my students have something on rotation to help them get their assignments done. Thank you so much for your support!
