My Students

My students love to have books in their hands!!!!! They are taken to "another world" when they hear a book being read to them.

My students are inquisitive, bright, energetic first graders who come from a high poverty area.

Parents want to provide the best for the children, but finances are very limited. My students love to learn and I want to support them in every way that I can.

My Project

I would like to provide my students access to read aloud books on CDs. They do not have books on CDs to listen to. I also want to provide them with a vocabulary quiz show game which will be a fun learning tool. These learning tools will help feed the reading spark that they have.

My students are precious jewels who need opportunities and resources to help them become the best that they can be.

I want them to know that they are talented, creative, smart children who can do anything.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
