My Students

Every day, I have the privilege of being able to see two dozen smiling students, eager and ready to learn. I teach in an urban school with students from a wide range of backgrounds. This year, we are teaching and learning 100% remotely for at least the first semester, which makes establishing strong connections even more critical.

Each day, we spend our hours together exploring new worlds in books, writing gripping stories, and solving math problems.

My students are truly incredible. Despite the challenges that exist in our world today, and the difficulties that remote learning can create, my students work hard and truly strive to be the best they can be.

My Project

We will soon embark on a study of nonfiction books in both reading and writing workshop. Students will study the structure, craft moves, and content of a range of nonfiction books. They will work to navigate these texts, then create books of their own based on the structures they have learned.

Students are far more likely to have favorite fiction titles in their homes than they are to have age-appropriate nonfiction titles.

I want to put high-quality nonfiction books in each student's hands so they have books they need at home to support their remote learning. Even after we return to the classroom, students can keep these books in their homes to enjoy over and over, and hopefully to share with friends and family for years to come.

Thank you for supporting my students and growing their love of reading!
