My Students

My class is not only culturally diverse; the students also come from varying levels of academics, economic situations, behavioral and social skills. I have a variety of special needs students in my class, along with kids with behavior challenges. We house a behavior program at our school where the students are mainstreamed into the neighborhood classrooms.

We are a Title I school.

Our school is the 17th most culturally diverse school in the nation with children from all over the world. We have a strong focus on social and emotional learning at our school due to our changing environment to meet the needs of the students district wide.

Our learning goals consist of helping every student to be successful in meeting their needs. My students struggle with getting their basic needs met. The work hard every day and they are excited to learn. Therefore, I am always striving to inspire, challenge and empower my students on a daily basis.

My Project

I am requesting science based phonics lessons by using Secret Stories activities available from Teachers Pay Teachers. Secret Stories® are the “secret” reasons WHY letters get together and make the many different sounds that they do. They offer logical explanations for letter sound behavior that learners' brains crave! ... Secret Stories® target backdoor learning channels to accelerate phonics skill mastery for reading and writing.

Secret Stories will be the main part of our classroom.

They will always be in view, always a part of our whole and small group conversations. We couldn’t read words without them.” Secret stories are stories that teach phonics rules in an engaging science based way.
