My Students

My students say "Aww" when it's time to put their books away! Their love of reading is inspiring to me! Since they love it so much, I want it to be as comfortable as possible.

We are a Preschool-8 grade school.

We are small but we have a lot of love. Our community works together to provide the best education we can for our kiddos. Students, parents, teachers and community members show great pride in our school and work hard to make it the center of the town. I love this school so much that my husband and I open enroll our five children to this school.

My Project

These beanbags will provide comfortable places for a few kids while they read alone or with a buddy. Having a soft place helps them to sit quieter for longer times while I work with small reading groups. The Hear Myself Phones will help the students hear themselves read out loud without disturbing everyone around them. These have been shown to improve articulation and phonology. Each having their own phone will help cut down on germs!

Thank you for considering donating to our project.

My kiddos will greatly appreciate the opportunity to sit in comfortable spots around the room. These phones are a fun and new way to practice reading! Thank you again!!
