My Students

My students are the sweetest! Like a lot of Americans right now, many of them are recovering from last years academic downfalls. These students are thriving in an in-person learning environment! I want to make sure they have the resources they need to succeed here and grow even more than they already have this year. Thank you so much for considering donating. It means more than you could know!

My Project

With book bins, I will be able to assign one to each student, giving them a leveled book to read during independent reading time. This way students can keep track of what they have read and work their way up when they are ready. It is so important that 1st graders practice reading independently and increase their stamina. They are officially at eight minutes and are working their way up minute by minute. The larger bins are to store materials for the small reading groups I have with the class. Reading groups are so important for supporting and teaching reading strategies, increasing fluency, building confidence in reading, learning phonics, etc. I could go on and on. With these items, I will be able to maintain my organization in the classroom.
