About Seller

Research shows that readers who can activate schema or make connections to prior knowledge have good comprehension. When a student can connect an idea to something they are already familiar with, it aids in their understanding and retention of new ideas as well. This bookmark focuses in on the making connections strategy. There are three kinds of connections listed and explained with kid friendly illustrations and definitions. The connections are: text to self, text to text, and text to world. These are great strategies taught in Reading Workshop mini-lessons. The back of the bookmark has space for students to write and note connections they are making as they read.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Grades Taught:

Pre-K, First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth

Subject Area:

Classroom Management, EFL - ESL - ELD, For All Subject Areas

I have taught elementary school for 8 years with the majority of my experience in teaching 3rd grade in an urban setting with a majority of bilingual students. I speak some Spanish so I am better able to communicate with the parents of my students. I have also taught for one year each in 2nd and 4th along with sub experience in grades 1st & 5th as well. Currently alongside teaching third grade I am a mentor to new teachers as well as a workshop presenter on topics including Reading Strategies, Math Interventions, Classroom Management and Technology in the Classroom. I've also worked with children from infant to 18 years in other settings including early childhood development centers, after-school programs, summer camps, at-risk youth programs, juvenile detention centers and Special Olympics.
