My Students

Do you remember gathering around your teacher in kindergarten to hear a new story read aloud? This is one of my students' favorite times of the day, but we are in need of new stories to read!

I teach a wonderful group of 22 5-year-olds.

They come to school each day eager to learn and excited to be there with their peers. Our school tries hard to provide all the materials that we will need, but budget cuts have made it increasingly difficult for us to get new books. Please help!

My Project

With your help, I will have new stories to read to my students. Our story time is a special time each day when our class gathers together to listen to a story. The children are so quiet as they intently study the pictures and listen to the words of the beautiful stories we share. It is during this time when you can actually see each student's love of reading growing. The only problem is that we need some new stories to reinvigorate our reading time!

Your donations will give my students brand new stories that we can share together.

Your donations will give them a chance to further develop their love of reading and to become lifelong readers. Help us reSTORe Storytime!
