My Project

Going into my fifth year of teaching I would like to be able to make each holiday season a special occasion for my new batch of students. With fresh new read alouds and small trinkets, the holidays will be a special moment for my students.

Reading aloud to students models fluency, expression and helps grow a love of reading in children.

With your donations, I will be able to have plenty of books available for read alouds, and for student exploration. This will help make each season of the year and each holiday a special moment for my students.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
