The students in my class are excited and eager to learn. My students are joyful, energetic, creative, and always so much fun to be around! They come from a variety of backgrounds and have a wide range of educational experiences. Most of my students come from low-income homes where they have had limited exposure to reading. Some students have experienced some form of previous education while others do not know how to hold a book.
All of my students are capable of growing and learning inside the classroom.
My students have so much to learn, whether they need to learn how to tie their shoes, letter sounds, adding or writing. They have the potential to do amazing things, and I loving being able to help them grow!
My Project
These books will impact my student's learning because they will allow us to have a wide range of books to read together as a class and independently! My school has a diverse Hispanic population and it is important that their culture is reflected in our read aloud time. Students will love to see familiar family traditions and listen to stories that feel like home. Incorporating books that reflect my students will show them that their culture is valued. It also allows my students who are not Hispanic, to learn about the culture of their peers.
It is important to have a vast range of books for students to see their own culture but also learn about the culture of others!
I cannot wait to have these books to read to my students! I know they will be so excited to see kids, just like them in the stories. Young children are like sponges and they absorb so much of what they hear. So, it is important to teach them the importance of diversity at a young age and these books will help me incorporate this into our daily learning!
