FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Villaro's classroom raised $832

This project is fully funded

My Project

My kids are a dynamic bunch who are curious about the world around them, and whose exposure to information and lessons about life may only come from quality texts. I love them because they are curious, and truly want to take what they learn in school to help them achieve greater things for themselves. The fiction and nonfiction paired texts will help them connect information to emotion and life lessons. The guided reading texts will help them to access these valuable texts. The math manipulatives will make the very abstract real.
