Our students struggle daily while trying to read our social studies and science textbooks. Our third graders face many challenges in our high-poverty, 99% minority elementary school. We have a fresh group of teachers in our grade this year, ready to change the traditional way these kids are learning. Research shows that reading in all subjects, especially social studies and science, can make reading fun and meaningful for our struggling readers. We want to enhance our students' curriculum and motivate them to read topics of interest. Many of our students do not leave their neighborhood subsidized housing for outside world experiences. Exposure to this high-quality magazine will provide students with an exciting "trip around the world", when the magazines arrive each week. We need financial support to provide a magazine for each of our high-poverty students, who are just bursting with potential!
