I teach 4th grade students. Most of my students are at risk due to academics, low SES, or language and have been in our school from Kindergarten to 4th grade, but we get lots of transfer students as well. Our school is the biggest elementary school in the district. The school in which I work is a Title l school in which most of the students are on free and reduced price lunch. There is not much parental involvement once the students reach 3rd/4th grade and because of the low SES of most of the students, getting necessary supplies throughout the school year is difficult. The students in my school are pretty well behaved with very little to no behavioral issues and the attendance rate is very high. So, providing students with a full, in class, literacy experience for the short time that I have them is important to me.
