Keeping Warm

Help me give my students new socks to keep their feet warm throughout the day and a space heater for our small group area.

My Project

I work with a wonderful group of multilingual learners by collaborating with classroom teachers and supporting students in their classrooms. I also pull out small groups to teach specific skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

Winter is here, and it has been cold.

My students want and need to stay warm. Some nice cozy warm socks will be perfect for my students to keep their feet warm. The socks will be appreciated by each of my students.

Students get cold waiting for the bus in the mornings. Being able to provide them with new socks will help them keep their feet warm while they are headed to and home from school. If they go out to recess, these new socks will continue to keep their feet warm.

Our classroom can get cold during the winter months. A space heater will help keep us warm while we are working in small groups.

It's important for my students to stay warm so they can stay well enough to attend school. Your donation will help them to keep warm and healthy.
