My Students

I teach Reading Recovery in a high needs school. We are a school that is struggling to meet our state testing requirements in the area of Literacy and we are looking for more creative ways to get parents involved at an early age.

Unfortunately, many of the students that I work with do not have a number of high quality books at home, and are not being read to with consistency, if at all.

I know that the best SAT preparation course in the world is to read to your child starting when they are very young. Eventually, this being a wonderful experience for them, they'll start to read themselves.

My Project

We need a set of the book "Grandfather Tang's Story", two buckets of Tangrams, a Tangoes game and Tangram templates. We already have a backpack to keep all of the materials together and to transport them back and forth from school and home. With these resources and the "Tangramables" book, I will create a literacy book bag which will make it possible for my students and their parents to spend time reading together and working on visual spatial relationships.

With your help we will be able to bring the joy back to reading and more importantly, create a time for families to spend together that involves their child's education.

Maybe we can create an environment in these homes that promotes reading and spending time together with books. My vision is of a world where reading is fun and enjoyable and kids bond with their families. Your donation will help that dream become a reality.
