In Kindergarten, we love learning how to be authors and illustrators! Creating classroom books is a powerful way for students to develop literacy skills, express creativity, and build confidence in their writing. However, our classrooms are not provided with the basic materials needed for these projects, such as paper, cardstock, and laminating sheets. Donations of these items make it possible for all students to participate, regardless of their background or access to resources at home.
By donating to this project, you can directly support hands-on learning and foster a love of reading and storytelling in young learners.
These contributions will help my amazing students have engaging, meaningful experiences that bring joy to their educational journey and empower them to see themselves as authors.
My fabulous kindergarten students are hard workers who love to get creative and show off their learning. Thank you for supporting my students as they learn and grow in kindergarten!
