Classroom Book Nooks!

Help me give my students a story time buddy, some books to make a book nook, and some leapfrog go with me backpacks.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Nelson's classroom raised $356

This project is fully funded

My Students

My class consists of special needs and typically developing children in an inclusive classroom setting. My students range from three to five years old and participate in North Carolina's PreKindergarten program that seeks to prepare them for when they enter kindergarten.

Our students work on both academic skills, including pre-reading skills, to physical skills such as hopping on one foot.

All of these varied skills help my students thrive when they move on to kindergarten. These items will allow students to learn about being healthy.

My Project

My students want some activities for the classroom that will allow us to start telling stories. They are ready to learn how to write and would love the activities to start telling stories. The children will be able to use the table to store the activities that will allow them the pre-learning to start telling stories.

The children will love being able to use the new books to learn how to read, and they would love having a story time buddy.

The books that we get would help us to start a book nook. This will allow the students to also learn some new social skills. Students will use the story time buddy that they can read to while they are in the reading center. Finally, students will use the read and go with me backpack to learn how to write letters and learn their letters. This new and improved digital storytelling station center will help the students improve their storytelling skills.
