My Project

I am seeking support to enhance my classroom teaching by acquiring a new easel and pedal bikes. An easel would greatly enrich our shared reading sessions, allowing students to read stories at eye level and reinforcing the phonics skills we've been focusing on. Consistent practice at this level enhances their retention of phonics rules, a crucial aspect of early literacy.

Integrating pedal bikes into our classroom provides an essential outlet for high-energy students in first grade, offering them a productive way to burn excess energy while improving their focus on learning content.

Your assistance in obtaining these resources would greatly benefit my students and enhance the effectiveness of my instruction. Thank you for considering our classroom needs.

Mrs. Borns will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 7.
