My Students

I love my students! They are inquisitive, kind, compassionate learners. They are passionate about their learning! As I have moved to a more personalized learning approach, the children have been more engaged and excited about their own learning journey.

The children have moved to a more self selected center based learning model.

In doing so, I have been tasked with finding more and more center materials. I am in need of some new materials to make centers more engaging and enjoyable.

My Project

My learner's love to listen to stories on CD. The player we have now is failing to read discs the first try. The children (and I) have to waste time working on getting the player to work in order to enjoy our books.

The children love to hear stories several times in different ways.

We use our listening center daily to hear our favorite books! I read them aloud, we watch them on the smart board, and we listen to them at the listening center. Using multiple ways to hear a story helps reinforce their comprehension and build fluency!
