My Students

This year is a little bit different than my 15 years teaching in the past. This 2021-2022 school year, I will be back in the building, after being away for the past year and a half. I am working on setting up my classroom to keep kids distanced and safe. I want my students to have the same experience learning as they would in front of me in a classroom without a pandemic. My remote classroom will consist of about 30 students, from a Title I, mixed-income, diverse neighborhood- learning from home, who have not had a normal school experience in over a year and a half.

Many of these students have parents who are first responders or essential workers, and distance learning and this pandemic was very hard for them academically and socially.

Some of them who have parents that must go to work will be cared for by grandparents or babysitters. Of these 32 students, many of their kindergarten experiences were cut short in March 2020, when NYC schools went remote. They come from diverse backgrounds. Many of my students are English Language Learners (ELL) and many of them have IEPs to meet their needs.

My Project

Thank for reading about my project. I am asking for a subscription to Scholastic magazine for my second graders to enjoy in the morning when they come into school. When they come in, we spend the first 20 minutes of the day free reading anything we would like. These magazines are so engaging and will help my readers practice and improve their comprehension and fluency! They will also learn about what is going on in the world.

I would love to give my students the opportunity to read a magazine in the morning.

This will give them the opportunity to read things other than books, and get them interested in different topics. The cost of the magazine is too much to ask for many of the families, so we currently don't have a subscription. Thank you for reading about my project.
