Cool Readers and Writers in Two Classes

Help me give my students new books, journals, and necessary items for Literacy and Language.

Ms. Brooks Kimberley Park Elementary School
Winston Salem, NC Grades PreK-2

My Project

With these new books, and other items for Literacy, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level, including the other items to help read, and write.

All the new books, pencils, sentences strips, and other necessary items will be a great asset to my new classrooms.

I will have two separate classrooms this year. My goal is to have enough supplies for Our New Literacy and Language Area in the classrooms.

My students are special as they will be happy knowing I am teaching them how to read and write with dignity and pride.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
