My Students
Inquisitive, wonderfully inspired and energetic; this describes my busy little Kindergarteners in a high-needs urban area. 90% of the students qualify for Title One services.
The majority of my little students consist of English Language Learners who are eager to learn.
Although many speak the English language, they have a limited vocabulary. Living in a low poverty area, the majority of my students do not experience the world outside their neighborhoods. Thus, their acquisition of the English language is delayed because many of the concepts we read about they have never experienced.
My Project
I need a color printer in my classroom to print games, pictures, and student work. The printer in our classroom stopped working, and due to budget cuts, our district has decided not to purchase printers for the classroom. My kindergarten students come to school with varying levels of learning. For many of my students this is their first experience in a traditional learning environment away from home. Most of my students come from homes where only the Spanish language is spoken. This makes it very important to diffentiate learning and provide my students with ways to learn what is needed in Kindergarten.
In my classroom I need a printer and paper to print pictures and to make games to help my students who are stuggling to understand the English Language.
I preview my lessons to decide what will help my struggling students to learn because of their limited English lanuage. I print pictures and make games I print from online websites to teach my students during small group instuction. My students learn better when they can see a color picture, or manipulate a fun game. Without the use of a printer in my classroom it has been difficult at times to give the students what they need to get a better understanding of what is being taught. I have been printing games and pictures in my home to supplement the curriculum, but my printer is small and I can no longer afford to buy ink for my home printer. Your help with this project will give my students what they need to be successful.
