My Project

My goal is to really strengthen the reading of my struggling readers and EL learners. Throughout the pandemic and the past few years, there has been many gaps created with students and their ability to read and comprehend. My goal is to create a safe space where students feel comfortable to learn and grow in their reading abilities, hence the flexible seating and reading center rug. I also plan to use decodable texts to help them progress to more on grade level texts. Please help us fulfill this! Your donation will not go unnoticed!
