FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bazeley's classroom raised $803

My Project

185 Days of Stories! Next school year, I will be making the transition into teaching kindergarten. The beautiful part about teaching kindergarten is that you get to read them a story daily. They get to listen to you read and start reading for themselves. Learning that lines make letters, letters make sounds, and sounds make words! I loved sitting on the carpet as a kindergartner and listening to my teacher read to me. I have selected a diverse group of books! Some books have been around since I was a kid, and others are brand-new picture books that are keeping up with the times!
