I have a first grade class that is eager to learn. They work hard. They are kind to each other and get along well. They are enthusiastic about life and love to come to school and learn and be with each other.
They surprise me at times with the depth of their comprehension and their understanding of abstract concepts and reasoning.
Because of COVID, they were somewhat behind when they have begun this year. But they have made terrific progress and most of them are at or above grade level.
My Project
My bookshelves will be used to make books more available and organized for my students to use. This will help my kids do more reading and that will help them get caught up in reading which they have lagged behind in because of COVID.
My current whiteboards are worn out.
We use them a great deal with phonics and writing. This is one more way to help them get caught up.
They will use the clipboards for independent work around the room. This flexibility helps them to be more comfortable so they learn better. The other supplies make learning more engaging.
