Bumbling ELA Boosters!

Help me give my students an exciting and engaging learning experience. Our school struggles with reading scores. I think these items will help us engage in the reading and writing process.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Porter's classroom raised $996

This project is fully funded

My Students

Our class is spunky, humorous, and talented. They are dedicated to bringing positive attitudes into our school. Everyday they strive to be a light and example to those who are in our school. We are dedicated to thinking positively about ourselves and those who are around us. We strive to learn and improve in every aspect of our lives, not just the classroom.

My Project

Being able to relate to literature is hard when you cannot read. These books and supplies will help kids dig deep into literature by learning on their individual levels. Not only will these books help students engage in reading, but they will also help them learn coping and social skills. Being able to dissect literature will help them learn different story elements as well as understand different historical principals and morals. While using these supplies, we will be able to make up some of the gaps that we have gained from the pandemic and hopefully close some of those gaps by sparking a love for reading and learning.
