Columbia, SC Grades PreK-2

I teach a combination three and four-year-old child development class in a rural school in South Carolina. I teach twenty children all subject areas - language arts, science, math, music, art, drama, physical activity, and health. All of my students, currently and in the future, will participate in this endeavor. I want my students to have more resources readily available to them to encourage inquiry into topics that intrigue them.

My preschool class is the first encounter most of my students have with school. I would like to provide an exciting book about school for my students when I perform their screening in the summer before they begin. I want them to have a book for their classroom library that is exciting and will get them excited about school!

I would like 20 copies of the book "Wow! School!" to give to each child in my classroom. I would also like to have a classroom copy of the book to add to our reading center. This book is full of GREAT illustrations and simple words (WOW!) that will get then kids excited about school and curious about our own school.

Your help will empower and excite young learners as they begin their educational journey. Help me create an excitement for school as I meet my students at the beginning of the school year!
