Mrs. Garrigan from Lakehurst NJ is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Books Are Gifts LLD Students Can Open Again and Again!

My Students

My students are exceptional. Each student is very unique with very different abilities and disabilities. Many of my students see OUR classroom as a place where they can learn and grow in a way that is suitable to their needs. There are many of my students come from low income or broken homes where the parents are not involved in their child's educational experience. Therefore, it is my job, as their teacher to thrive to make their learning experience in school as enjoyable and meaningful as possible.

My Project

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” -Dr. Seuss

Students will be using the leveled books as a resource during guided reading.

My students' current reading levels range from Level A to Level J. With the wide range of abilities, there is currently a limited number of resources available to my students. Getting this project funded will allow my learning disabled students to read books that are on suitable for their abilities and their needs. In addition, organization and routine is very important in my LLD Self-Contained classroom. Therefore, the leveled library cart and bins will promote organization for my students during guided reading time.

Thank you in advance for your support!
