My students need sturdy book bins to keep their books safe throughout the school year.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hickey's classroom raised $192
This project is fully funded
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
My students come from a very low soceo-economic background. Essentials to learn and grow each day are scarce at home. In school, they feel safe and are constantly ready to learn due to the consistency and community they feel everyday in the classroom. My students love to read, listen to music, and are free to show off their individual artistic abilities in a warm and loving environment. Donating would continue to help them reach full potential now and throughout their school career. Thank you for your consideration!
My Project
Every day I teach them something new to try in reader's workshop and then eagerly go off on their own to read independently. Yet our book boxes need help! They are made of flimsy material, get broken very easily, and books fall through them everyday.
My blossoming readers need sturdier supplies so they can concentrate on reading and not fixing their book box every day.
Help us get long lasting materials so each year my students can use these multiple times a day to go book shopping with ease.
Multiple times a day, a hear a student say, "Ms. Hickey! my books fell through again. I need duct tape!" So instead of helping my growing readers, I am taping the weak book boxes at least twice a week.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
