My Students

The students in my class are fascinated with learning. They come to school each day eager to get a chance to dive into a new concept and deepen their learning. They love to take the skills they've learned and extend them so that they can become masters of their own education.

In my class, there is a community of love, acceptance, and trust .

My students are a family. They care about each other and love having the chance to celebrate their own successes and those of their classmates. My classroom is always a safe space in which students can ask questions and take accountability in their quest to be professional learners.

My Project

Literacy is the most fundamental aspect of a child's education. Access to good literature teaches students to find joy in reading and furthers their desire to improve their literacy skills.

As students delve into the world of a book, they are transported to places that expand their minds.

The books that I have chosen were carefully selected after much thought and research into their themes and the topics they teach. They will take my students on many diverse adventures and help them to engage in different perspectives and ways to view the world. I plan to use these books as read alouds, introductions to new topics, and leisurely reading opportunities for my students to help them spark a passion for reading.

A student in my class never passes up the chance to read a book that will bring them joy. These books will positively impact not only my students reading abilities, but will also help them develop the academic literacy they need to succeed across all subjects. As a child comes to use books to learn about inferencing, creativity, deep thinking, and imagination, they discover a whole new side of their brain that craves growing and learning.
