Chillaxin with Books and DVDs

My students need 8 DVDs for our "Fun Friday" activities. Sometimes we just need a break from all the reading our teacher makes us do.

We are a second grade class in a high-need community and would like to requests these materials.

Our teacher makes us read so much that by Friday we just need a break. We are working very hard to become better readers.

Please contribute to our "Fun Friday" activities so we have the materials for our classroom. Our school budget was just cut by $170,000 and we have no money for DVDs.

By doing this, you will help us relieve stress and be able to CHILLAX! Sometimes, we just need a break.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
