My students ooze curiosity and enthusiasm! I have the pleasure of teaching a diverse group of learners. They range from special education students to English language learners to students performing above grade level.
If you knew my students, you would love them too!
My goal as a teacher is to create a community of life long learners. I strive to recognize the individual strengths of each student and to foster their creativity so that they will grow where they have been planted.
My Project
These fabulous books will enrich our classroom library. Our library is the place students want to be! As soon as they complete their work... they grab their "just right" book to read independently! Students treasure and love our library and are enthusiastic when it's time to relax and enjoy their books. Each book was chosen with my students in mind. I have reviewed their "good fit" books and selected more books that I am sure they will love reading.
These new books are sure to inspire students to keep reading and growing!
Students can choose books that interest them. We know that the best way to increase reading ability is to read more. My students already have shown a love for independent reading, and this project will enhance their experience even more!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
