My Students
Our school is one of the biggest in our district. We have a total of 7 second grade classes. With a school this big, our population is extremely diverse. Our school is located along the coastline in a small, rural town. We have very low economic families in our community. But these children are always eager to learn and ready to over come obstacles. I want to help these children go even further and really push themselves. Your donations will make that dream possible for my classroom.
My Project
Great literature inspires my students as they learn concepts and strategies to become amazing readers and mathematicians. I am requesting specific book titles which accompany lessons shared reading for my second grade students. Rooted in Reading takes the reading standards and objectives for my age group and build's lessons around great book titles. Concepts that are connected to great literature titles for my second graders are anchored in the most basic of building blocks...books!
Each and every child in my class loves hearing a book title to launch a new concept or objective in class.
Each story unifies the skill we are learning and enriches the climate by integrating literature in everything we do. Books are truly the most basic and yet imaginative way to reach students. Books light the way. They take us anywhere we need to go!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
