ESL Students Learn to Read!

Help me give my students grade level workbooks to learn the English language.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Schrage's classroom raised $183

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are struggling with online learning right now. All of my students speak English as their second language and they are having a hard time with technology due to the language barrier. Since my students do not understand what they are supposed to do online, we have decided to make learning packets for them so they can continue learning. I have been in constant contact with all of my students and we are in need of books that the students can complete to keep on track.

My Project

We are requesting workbooks that are titled Big First, Second, and third-grade workbooks to improve the reading, writing, and language skills of my students. You will be providing my students with high-interest activities so I can teach reading skills along with the English language. It is very important that these students learn to read so they can be successful in school. If they are able to read and communicate in English, their lives will become so much easier. The workbooks I have chosen are grade-level workbooks that the students will be able to improve their reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills in English. This will give my students the opportunity to improve their reading comprehension, fluency, and understanding of the English language. We will be learning valuable skills with these workbooks.
