Books and the Love of Learning Starts Here!

Help me give my students books, engaging literacy and math activities to help them lean and grow

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bellamy's classroom raised $553

My Students

Students across the world are in a greater need of books to help them cope with everyday life more than ever. It starts with our youth. My families come from a low income background and need resources to help them be successful in their early years of learning.

My scholars are full of energy and joy and deserve nothing but the best.

Working at a Title I school can be a challenge, however with your support with the resources and tools we need to be successful, our kindergarten year can be awesome!

My Project

We can’t wait to soak in all there is to learn in Kindergarten with your help! We need books, math, and literacy center activities to help build our brains and grow. The literacy games will help their ability to learn letters and sounds and even spell words. The math games will help them with foundational counting skills and one-on-one correspondence. My students work independently or in small groups to learn new skills by practicing what we know and have learned in class with our teacher. With the books we will be able to read on the level that’s just right for us. Watch us grow by providing the resources we need to be successful kindergarten students. We are dedicated and ready to learn!
