Bridging the Gap in Learning!

Help me give my students materials to extend their learning during the summer! Most of my Kindergarten students did not go to Preschool during the pandemic and their access to quality materials was limited.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Duran's classroom raised $967

My Project

Most of my students have not had the opportunity to attend Preschool because of the pandemic. I want to provide reading and writing materials for them to use over the summer before they enter 1st grade! The books and materials in this project are leveled for their varying abilities and will challenge each student. I want to boost their confidence when reading and writing and share all they have learned with their families at home! I have also included a couple of box sets that teach about the importance of perseverance and grit, two things our students need to be successful!
