My Students

Leapin'Lizards! My kids are going to love LeapFrog Tag readers! These are engaging, touch readers to help my beginning English speakers.

I teach fourth and fifth grade ESL students that have just moved to the United States.

It is the best, most rewarding job in the world! My students are working very hard to learn to read, write, and speak English. They are from Pakistan, Mexico, Vietnam, Spain, El Salvador, and the Philippines. They enjoy school and are good friends.

My Project

I am requesting LeapFrog Tag readers. This will help my students with their English reading and speaking skills. My students want to practice their English and this will be a perfect way to do that. They will be able to read these stories at school and take them home for additional practice. They do not have someone to help them with their English at home so this would be a wonderful learning device for them.

My students work so hard to speak, read, and write in English.

These LeapFrog readers would be a fun way to help them practice their skills. I want my students to feel confident so they do well on tests and as they go on to the next grade level. I am so proud to be their teacher. I want to provide every opportunity I can to make sure they are successful. I will be able to use these materials for years to come. Thank you for your support and generosity!
