Help me give my students a fun learning year with Classic Tales Big Books in my preik special education class.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gardner's classroom raised $765

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My student are special little angels. They are fun, and great to be around. During morning group, they love to sing and dance to the mornings songs. They are very creative and learn from visuals and hands on materials and playing pretend.

My Project

This will assist me with prompting and supporting my students. It will assist me in retelling a story and having the students to answer "Wh" questions. I will encourage the students to answer questions, and assist with engagement while reading.

My students needs repetitive, and going over the books with visuals support will brighten their understanding.

We will go over the characters and main events while reading and show the pictures. Most of the students are very visual. They learn through colorful pictures.

The dolls, stroller, blocks and the other materials will keep our class flowing in a productive way. The students can play pretend, dress-up and create their own environment.
