My Students
I teach Academic Intervention Services to students in grades K-5. I encourage my students to know that they are readers.
“Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.” -Margaret Fuller.
Our rural elementary school in upstate New York has a student population of 350 students. Our students are at risk of failing the New York State Assessments and students who are having difficulty academically are recommended to receive Academic Intervention Services. That's where my room comes into play.
My students are hardworking and imaginative, young learners. They strive every day to improve all areas of their literacy deficiencies. My students are all very eager to learn and love coming to school. They are independent, hardworking, and compassionate.
My Project
My students put forth extra effort each day and work so hard! They meet with me every day for 45 minutes. They read and write for every minute of our time together! There is nothing more they would want as a reward for their hard work than a fun sensory toy! Unfortunately, kids cannot have treats or food this year as prizes because of COVID, but that's okay! These fun fidget toys keep them motivated to come back each day and to work hard! These kids still don't have a normal school year, so by providing them with some fun tools they can keep, puts a smile on their face as well as mine !
More than half of students from low‑income households
