My Project

Dear Donors,

I am excited and optimistic about posting my first project here.

As a special education teacher working in a self contained bridge class, my students have significant delays in all subject areas. They are a mixture of 3rd, 4th and 5th graders in a small classroom setting. My students are eager to read high interest books, however they are in dire need of easier to read decodable books and chair pockets for storage in order to help get them started.

I am humbly asking for support to fill my classroom library in order for my students to fall in love with the joy, excitement and adventure that reading can bring.

Thank you so very much for any support!

Ms. Q.
