Kind Kindergarteners

Help me give my students access to a full and fun library this year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lia's classroom raised $722

This project is fully funded

My Students

These students are the first to enter our school as we officially transition to an Arts Magnet school. Kindergarten is critical to developing social-emotional learning, community building, and creating lifelong friendships! Please help us grow in the best way possible this year!

My Project

I believe literacy is one of the most important parts of being a productive citizen of the world. Expanding our classroom library will help my scholars tremendously! Many of the books our class is requesting this year, cater toward social-emotional learning, celebrate diversity, as well as emphasize kindness. These topics are very important, especially with the current state of our world. My goal is to honor each of my students' uniqueness at a young age through the use of materials found on the Teachers Pay Teachers website. These resources will create a positive impact on their identity of self.
