Like all classrooms, my students have diverse backgrounds and experiences. Our community is a stable area. The social economic status is as diverse as the levels of learners in my class. Differences in my class aren't important to my students. They all care about each other because they are all friends. They cheer each other on and help their friends succeed. They celebrate the student that has returned after being gone an extended amount of time, the student that is feeling better from an illness, or the new student that just moved into the neighborhood. They are a caring crew that looks for the good in everyone and wants the best for all their friends. The community supports the work we do in the class and they are willing to come in and help when they can. We all have the same goal for our students: we want them to be successful today and everyday in their future.
My Project
I want to help my kids become more fluent in reading while doing it in a super fun way! With karaoke, you have to read words quickly to a beat and this will help them learn to read sight words very read quickly. I can hardly wait to see their reading improvement as they are singing. The best part is, they won't even realize that they're learning and memorizing words because they'll be having so much fun enjoying what they're doing.
I'm excited to try a new style of learning and can't wait to see them have fun while learning!
