Extra Extra Read All About Our World Nonfiction for kids
My students need nonfiction material to read. Times for Kids will give them a variety of articles from all over the world. They can be exposed to different cultures and traditions.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Finelli's classroom raised $192

Celebrating 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 Students
I work in a title one school. My class consists of 60 percent General Ed. students and 40 percent Special Ed. students. This year I 've had to provide my class with much of their supplies, books, tissues, pencils etc. My students’ parents do not have the means to provide them with much. I have a very diverse class. I have many students who live in shelters, students who have been neglected, and so on. They are really lovely children. I only wish I could do more. With the donations I am asking for I am hoping to expose my students to hands on science activities. I was hoping to start a garden with them as well, but I didn't see what I needed. I would be very grateful for any of the items I have placed in my cart.
My Project
Most of my students come from low income homes and come from different parts of the world. I am hoping to instill the love of reading by exposing them to different genres, cultures, and traditions, including different types of text. This subscription to Times magazine will be so informative, articles and photographs will be child friendly, students will be able to take them home, share with their families and perhaps motivate them to read more about the world they live in and to learn new information. We will use these nonfiction magazines to also learn about text features, use them for research and data. They would be greatly appreciated!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
