My Project

I work in a low-income school where I am trying to encourage reading and writing. In order to do that with my students I am trying to get creative. The flexible seating would be a wonderful option for my students who do not want to be at a desk all day. This would allow them a break to hang out and read in a different way. I would the love the flashlights and book organizer to do reading in the dark days. The paint pens would be great for my artistic students. I am encouraging them to write by allowing illustrations with their writing. I have a lot of EL kids who could make great use of the headphones for translation. The items on my list would mean the world to my kids. Please consider any items and all items. Thank you!
