My Students
With the upcoming school year approaching, I am eager to meet my new set of students. However, I know from my school's overall community and communication with their past teachers that there will undoubtably be the same struggles present in my new class that were very much alive in my class that has moved on. There will be students who will show up every single day to school with their bodies and minds but no supplies. There will be students who will bring their smiles to class day in and day out but will not have a pencil. There will be students with vibrancy that will light up your entire day but with no coat on those cold, winter days.
Quite simply, my students are learning how to be students, as well as people, in a world that does not always cater to them.
My job is to bridge whatever gaps they come into my classroom with as best as I can.
My Project
This is my first year serving as a Reading Specialist after teaching in my school as a third grade teacher. I absolutely adore the students I work with, and I am dedicated to accelerating their reading.
Many of my students are reading far below grade level, and I truly want to provide them with the best materials possible.
There is nothing better than working with a fresh set of books instead of old, raggedy ones that fall apart as soon as you pick them up. After being out of the building for so long, the issue of old, worn out books has amplified. I would love to use these books and bins in my reading room!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
