My Students

My Kindergarten students enjoy coming to school everyday. They love to socialize and learn new things everyday.

My students eyes are wide open to learning and the more you teach them, the more eager they are to learn.

Whether it is learning about letters or number, animals or stories, my students enjoy it all. At home, these children don't get the experiences they do at school, so when they are allowed to explore and learn they are very grateful and appreciative.

My Project

My students will begin to borrow books from the classroom. These book pouches will be a convenient way to carry them back and forth. In the past my students would use plastic food storage baggies but they break so easily. These pouches are much more sturdier and will entice the kids to want to borrow and share their favorite storybooks with their families. With your donations I will be able to give my students the ability to share the joy of reading with their families who otherwise would not have access to these stories. My class and I appreciate your support!
