Twenty-six beautiful multilingual and multicultural students greet me each morning ready to learn, and every morning I feel blessed to do have the privilege to be their teacher. Although, my students come from a high poverty neighborhood in a violent city, they also come with strong families and diverse cultural backgrounds and languages. With all of the diversity in my classroom, there is still a universal zest for life and love of learning. As a school, we have focused on literacy this year and my 26 students have made huge strides in reading, writing and English language development.
Most of my students came to fifth grade reading below grade level. With so many students reading below grade level and most being English language learners, literacy is truly of the highest priority. I am asking for the 3 reading and language games libraries so that I can continue to provide my students with engaging ways to practice all that they have learned so that they can continue to grow and blossom!
