Crafting Teaching Practice

I need books to continue the development of my teaching practice.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lucas's classroom raised $295

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

As an educator, I am always looking for new and exciting teaching strategies that will keep my students motivated and engaged.

Through my project, I am asking for books that encourage literacy learning strategies and other approaches that I can use to engage my students to learn and grow as readers, mathematicians and writers.

This process will lead students to a deeper understanding of the content that they are learning, which helps them be able to apply these concepts in new situations.

By donating to my project, you will help my students gain skills and knowledge that will help them become successful in the 21st century. You will also support my ability to grow as a teacher.

Ms. Lucas PS 299 Thomas Warren Field Grades PreK-2

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
