Growing Great Learners and Thinkers!

Help me give my students more materials to help them be great readers. These materials will also help them to be critical thinkers.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kane's classroom raised $543

This project is fully funded

My Project

The use of these books and educational kits will take place during differentiated small group reading centers. These materials will help students to practice and master targeted skills that have been taught in the classroom. The materials will also be used to give students materials to use during our morning meetings. Many of these materials will help students to develop better social and emotional coping skills. Many of these resources will be used to help give students purposeful brain breaks that can be used through out the school day. Many of these materials will be used to increase higher level thinking skills.
