While we have access to simple early readers, my students are moving beyond that because they have worked so hard this year, and they have already read the books we have multiple times. The materials I have chosen for this project are as age-appropriate as they can be while still remaining accessible for my students' English level, and will help them build the background knowledge they need to be successful in their mainstream high school courses. My students read and conference with me on a daily basis and are trying to learn as quickly and efficiently as they can in order to reach grade level. Your donation will allow dozens of low-income students to benefit from reading materials that are age-appropriate and that match their level. This project may even help me implement a home reading program so that my students can grow even faster. My students' eyes light up when I borrow even a small box of books from another teacher, and I can't imagine how happy they will be when they get even more books in their hands.
