Define Learning

Mrs. Fremin Henderson Ward Stewart Elementary School
Starkville, MS Grades 3-5

I teach fourth grade in a rural Mississippi town. Both the poverty and the drop-out rate in our district is very high.

My students need references available at their fingertips to aid in their studying and learning. In our room, we often do a variety of projects ranging from science experiments to literature circles and word studies to wax museums.

Having a dictionary and a thesaurus for each of my students will give them the resources they need to better complete these projects and expand their knowledge.

With your help, my students this year, and years to come will have access to the basic resources they need to learn.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
