This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
The students in my reading classes are from low income homes. My students face many challenges in and out of the classroom. I am trying to make sure the class has enough resources to give them a balanced literacy program.
Despite the challenging home lives of my students, they come to school eager to learn.
As a reading teacher, it is my goal to foster a love for learning and reading in my students. This is more complex when there is a lack of materials.
My Project
Having an organized classroom allows the students to be knowledgeable of specific daily routines. Students are responsible daily to gather the needed materials in the class for their daily assignments.
When there is an organized system to file and set up the classroom procedures, the day runs much more efficiently.
Students in second grade are expected to check in homework daily, check out books from the classroom library, file weekly guided reading assignments and participate in daily centers. When these areas of the classroom are organized, the daily routines are easy to incorporate to make the students more successful in reading. Student will use the post-it’s, file tabs and labels to utilize their reading bins more efficiently. When items are labeled and organized with these materials, the students can follow routines and be successful learners!
