“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing it’s stupid.” -Albert Einstein
I want my classroom to be a space where all students have a chance to succeed.
In order to create this environment, I must be aware of the many differences that affect student learning. I believe that each and every one of my students are unique. No two students I encounter will be exactly the same. Things such as culture, language, ability, and environment can all lead to learning differences. Diverse students bring diverse thinking and learning styles.It would be ignorant for a teacher to believe that a class full of twenty-five different students is all going to learn the same. (And, in my opinion, a class full of twenty-five students who learn the same should be a teacher’s worst nightmare!) If I believe that each and every one of my students has something to teach me, then I should view learner diversity as a blessing- twenty five unique students means twenty five unique lessons! I feel confident that each student who walks into my classroom has the potential to pass.
My Project
Reading and math games will make learning fun for my students.
Students will be able to practice skills in a fun way.
Students will also be able to practice their social skills and work together to finish the game. Students will be able to practice their math facts in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Students will also be able to practice their social skills by working together.
The cushion for the seats will help my students with special needs sit comfortably while learning. A lot of my students struggle sitting on the chair because I do not have sensory cushions for them. This will help them concentrate on their work and during classroom instruction.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
