I teach at a very small rural school in Indiana. Funds are extremely limited. I love my school and I am trying desperately to ensure my children have the resources necessary. Many of my children come from very low income homes. I am asking for your help so that I might be able to give my children the very best start possible.

I do not have the necessary reading center materials. In order that I will be able to reach each child's learning style I must provide materials that meet those needs. The materials I am requesting meet all learning styles.

I am asking for your help in providing my students with sight word practice cards, rhyme word builder, making words,word chain, and contraction centers. These reading center materials will be used daily at center time as I conference with small groups of children. Learning will be fun and meaningful.

It is only with your help that I will be able to provide my students with these essential reading center materials. Your help will ensure that my students are successful. You will make it possible for children to have a great start. With this one small purchase many lives will be touched. I thank you in advance for supporting my project.
