My Students

My students are thirty, third graders in a large, urban school district in Ohio. They come from a variety of socioeconomic and racial backgrounds. They come to school eager to learn and explore new things. They love experiencing new texts and authors during interactive read-aloud and our literacy block. The books we read always lead to wonderful discussions.

My students love learning, reading and playing cooperative games.

They love to learn about others and themselves. Our neighborhood has a diverse mix of cultures and families.

My Project

The ability to take apart and decode words is an essential part of learning to read and write. One great way to learn how to manipulate letters into words is using magnetic letters to break apart and build words. My students need engaging activities to help them learn how words work.

Having magnetic letters will allow my students to grow as readers and writers.

It will give them tactile experiences manipulating letters and sounds to help them grow. We are implementing a new word study system in our classroom, but we do not have the magnetic letters or pocket chart to help us complete the lessons.
