My Students
I am a fourth-grade teacher to an amazing group of diverse learners. We are located in East Flatbush, Brooklyn—a historical, proud neighborhood to many immigrant families. This is my first year of caring for so many English language learners at a time, all of who dream of living up to their full potential of reading and learning at their age-appropriate levels. With a new, updated and multicultural classroom library, I am eager to see their progress along with their fellow classmates by way of inclusion and community.
My Project
We are a group of vibrant, diverse learners in fourth grade. Many of who come from families where English isn’t their primary language and do not take much of an interest in reading due to lack of current literature or relatable texts. Texts that include us would be so beneficial to our education. With a modernized classroom library, I am positive that we can, as a classroom community, foster a love for reading and learning as a whole. Please help us update our classroom library so that we can develop our love for reading and, at the same time, build our reading stamina!
