INTRODUCTIONIn an attempt to

accommodate the academic needs of all students, Elmdale Elementary placed “academically challenged” students in a separate group. This group was given one on one tutoring to increase their academic proficiency.

Our EAST/EMPACTS Intro to Ed team collaborated with Elmdale Elementary and served as special tutors to this group of students.

SPECIAL GROUP RATIONALETo teach a child you have to start at the

emotional level and grow into the cognitive level. When a teacher has a classroom full of twenty-five or more children unfortunately there will be a child that is going to be overlooked. The children that are usually overlooked are the ones who can not afford to be overlooked. They need that special one on one relationship. That is what our group is promoting in our EAST service learning project. Our group chose to tutor at Elmdale elementary school. We paid attention to the “low” students.

FUTURE PROJECTS

Elmdale Elementary would welcome any person willing to give their time to help tutor their students. The school is at a disadvantage due to the lower income and any positive inspiration for the students would be beneficial for a brighter future.
