Help me give my students the classroom library they need in order to move reading levels as well as incentives to do what is expected in the classroom and hallways, and with homework expectations.
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
This is my second year of teaching. My school is a Title I school located in Queens. The children receive free breakfast and lunch.
This year has been a challenging one meeting the needs of all of my ICT students.
Having 12 special ed students this year has been a difficult, but enjoyable challenge to see these children grown. We have a very diverse population of students at the school.
Fifty percent of my students are ELLs who all come from different backgrounds. Also, thirty percent are below grade level in reading. Even though my pupils face either speaking, writing or reading challenges, they are still trying every day to achieve their academic goals.
My Project
Roald Dahl is one of my favorite authors. I wish I had more of his books to get the children to think outside of the box as Roald Dahl has throughout his writing. Having his book set will help the students enjoy reading and allow them to use their imagination for once. Also having the Dork diaries book set will help expand my classroom library. Right now we have outdated books which the students can not relate to. Having these book sets will help improve our library. The Mochi squishes and animal erasers are good incentives for students to meet the classroom, hallway, homework, and reading log expectations.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
