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
Students from grades Kindergarten to 5th grade come into the reading room each day for small group instruction. These students come into the room and need to be three feet apart with masks and clean hands. This year we are not allowed to share materials such as pencils, scissors or glue sticks, like we have in past years. This year I have supplied my students with these items to keep in individual bags, but unfortunately we have run out. Leaving some students without supplies. The scissors, glue sticks, pencils and crayons that have been listed are for students to keep with them all year. They will use these materials during reading to complete activities that help aid them in building a solid foundation in literacy.
More than half of students from low‑income households
