My first grade students are a bundle of joy who enter the classroom ready to learn. I work at a Title I school that is located in the heart of Chinatown, NY. Our school strives to ensure that students receive rigorous instruction that is inclusive, engaging, and culturally responsive. The students are predominantly Asian and come from immigrant families. The majority of the students are English Language Learners who are seeking to become stronger readers, writers, and mathematicians!
My Project
The Gift of Reading Aloud can touch the hearts of students to develop empathy for each other, a love for reading and so much more. Having a diverse selection of read-aloud stories would greatly benefit my students. This collection of books have been individually selected by me in reflection of the student population in my classroom. Given that my students are from predominantly Asian families, having stories with Asian representation in the classroom library would mean the world to them! This selection of text consists of fun, inspirational, and culturally responsive books that my students are bound to love and relate to!
The Gift of Reading Aloud can greatly inspire students to develop their academic and social-emotional skills both inside and outside the classroom.
