My Students

My students love to learn. Due to COVID restrictions, shutdowns, and problems, many of my students need extra reading help to get them on grade level. I have a need for new books to put in my classroom library to spark that love for reading.

I work with a varied group of students from different backgrounds and with different abilities.

Many of these students come from lower-income areas. They are all learning Spanish as a second language in our Spanish Dual Language Immersion school while being voracious readers that want to learn new things.

My second graders were online for part of a year or in person with so many COVID restrictions in place, that learning was hard and a struggle for most. It is time to play catch up for some and to differentiate learning for all.

My Project

These items will help me get informational books in my student's hands. They are voracious readers and are ready to read new genres. I have a class of many different reading levels and many of the children are struggling to find that book that will spark their love of reading.

Reading is fun and can be an adventure for them every time they pick up a book.

I want to provide that opportunity for all of my learners. We have had a rough two years in the classroom and we need to get them back on track with reading and exploring again!

Other materials in my project, will be used to prepare my reading program for my class, small group instruction materials, and incentives.
