My Students

I love my fifth graders! Our Title I school in New York City is comprised of a diverse group of students who mostly receive free lunch.

Our students are very energetic and have very different learning styles, abilities, and needs.

Many of our students have learning disabilities and some of our students have fallen behind since the COVID-19 pandemic.

It is very important for us to encourage both group work, especially during these times, and independent work so our students can succeed academically and socially. In order to do this, we have to appeal to our students' interests by staying up-to-date with technology. Many of our students do not have computers, tablets, or Internet at home. In order to succeed today, we want to expose them to this technology as much as possible in school!

My Project

My students will be able to read and get excited about things that are going on in the world. This will help them to broaden their horizons outside of what they see in their everyday life. There are so many incredible articles available to students through Scholastic News. The students will be able to read about different events, important figures and other things that will spark their interest. Many of my students are below reading level so anything that will help them to spark their interest in reading, can really help them both in short term and long term reading goals.

Please help us spark their reading into a bonfire!

We are just starting our Nonfiction unit of study. Digital Scholastic News subscriptions will allow our remote and blended learners to have access to articles on their reading levels and interests from home!
