My Students
I teach an amazing group of kids who deserve the best. By partnering with Donors Choose and you, my students are provided with the best materials and much more.
Every day, my students work hard to achieve greatness. They also encourage and support each other in being better as a whole. My students are kind, compassionate, smart, and grateful. They are role models to the younger students and leaders among their peers. My students make me proud every day, and I am grateful to be their teacher.
My Project
Building a love for reading is one of the most important parts of my job. Due to kids' ability, likes and interests, this can be a challenging task. My goal every year is to provide all students with books they love. By providing them with books they are eager to read, I am helping them see themselves as readers.
This project will help enhance my classroom library. A diverse classroom library will increase the chances of all my students finding books they love. Every year, I receive new students with different interests and likes then the previous year. It is my job to transform my classroom library to fit my current students. With your help I am able to accomplish this goal.
