A ham, is a ham, is a ham. I teach 27 hams. I teach across the 4th grade curriculm in a Title 1 school that has a very large ELL population.

In order to hook my ELL's in participating in literacy, I have introduced The Reader's Theatre. It is a program that allows students to learn how to read by participating in play acting. This has somehow sparked their interest in reading and memorizing.

A digital camera would allow me to capture their special moments. Seeing what they can achieve in an album of photos would benefit my students.

Your generosity will allow my students to become more confident in their ability to achieve more than they even believe they can.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
