My Students

Here’s the thing.... I don’t know my students yet, but I can tell you all kids in KPS are amazing. They are intelligent, energetic, and ready to succeed! These kids will likely already come to me behind based on the abrupt end to last year. I want to give them everything I can to make up those losses and gain so much more!!!

My Project

I have already purchased a program that allows me to teach my reading students in a small group setting- at their level- with skills they individually need. This program comes with the ability to print color- rich, leveled books for kids at every level. However, my school does not have a colored printer for my use. This project would allow me to print these books for my students so that I can teach them with color- rich, engaging books that keep them interested in the text we are reading daily!
