Help Kindergartens to Love School and be Excited about Learning

Help me give my students books for an engaging literacy program versus the one I have used for the past few years that they get bored with.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bumpus's classroom raised $314

My Project

I have been forced to use district wide materials for the last several years that do not excite and engage my students as I have seen in the past. I now have the opportunity to go back to teaching the most effective way I know in my past 26 years.

I can engage and interest students in fabulous, well written books that inspire them.

Please help me build my library with these books. Otherwise, I have to use Powerpoints and online books that don't motivate or hold the interest of my students.
