I teach kindergarten in a school of 650 students. Our school has 69% free and reduced lunches.This year 18 of my 21 students were on free and reduced lunches. 6 out of 21 students were ESL students. As you can see our students are very needy. Budget cuts make it very difficult to buy supplies unless we have supporters as yourself. I would like to purchase a question of the day graph that could be used in many academic areas. In math I might use it to ask the students how many members are in their family or their favorite color, in social studies I might ask do you like the country or the city? This year we started teaching money with our students. I would like to purchase play money and a graph to hang on the wall to display the money. Thank you so much for your help with this project.
