My Project

Teaching is my passion and I want my scholars to become stronger in reading. My scholars have a desire to read and grow their brains. They face many obstacles just because of where they live. The materials I am requesting will help students grow as readers. It will also provide students with a more organized and welcome space to learn. Having headphones to hear what is being reviewed in the online intervention program, is vital to their growth as readers. Having somewhere to sit and read a "just right" book will help foster a love for reading in my students. A shelf for my classroom will provide much needed organization to my small space. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase students' attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. My students and I thank you advance for your generous donations.
