It's TIME for Non-Fiction

Help me give my students Time for Kids Magazine digitally to assist with reading non-fiction and staying current on information. We are learning virtually, so this will give students access from home.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Caird's classroom raised $2,706

My Students

There are students in our city, and surrounding counties, who have everything they need. There are students on the other end of the spectrum that are lacking basic supplies. My school, much like our city is a diverse and creative community from all walks of life.

I am proud to be a librarian at a school with students who can learn from one another’s cultural and socio-economic differences, and family make-up.

My school embraces and welcomes all families, making it a true neighborhood school. Our parents give of themselves, our teachers and administration are good people, and our students are our passion.

My Project

Our school is currently all virtual at least through the first semester. As the Librarian, I have been working hard to ensure my students have quality material to read. My students love to read non-fiction and are excited to learn about current events. The digital access to Time for Kids magazines would provide a great resource for the students to read from home and the information provided is aligned with curriculum standards by grade level. Student learning outcomes are impacted with magazine features such as charts, graphs, voice text and language can be adjusted to Spanish.
