My Students

My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. I want my students to know I believe in them and they can do anything.

I teach at a Title I school in Baltimore City where 100% of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Many of my students receive backpack food on the weekend, and our school also runs a food pantry for our families. Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best. They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can so they can be successful one day.

My Project

My students are in need of a leveled library that will allow them to have access to grade level text. Students deserve the right to have books that are on grade level and of various genres. Students will also be allowed to check these text out and take home to practice their reading skills. During independent time students will be allowed to choose a book from a bin that they have been assigned and given prompts to answer question when they are not in guided reading with the teacher. With a shortage of leveled libraries at my school this will open a whole new love of reading for our young people.
