My Project

Starting off the new year with new independent reading bags and boxes would make all the difference to their 4th grade reading life. Students bring home books to read every night to keep up with their book club reading goals. By providing new cloth bags to carry their books and notebooks back and forth from school to home, will help students to stay organized and ready to learn. During classroom independent reading, students keep their independent reading books and materials in these bins. My classroom is in desperate need of new boxes. The current boxes have seen better days and cleaning them up every year has worn them out. It would be very nice to have new boxes for students to use. I have also asked for a straw dispenser which would serve as a pencil dispenser for classroom use. My students work on collaborative projects, meet for book clubs and read and write with partners often. Having these supplies would really help to keep my students become organized and focused for the new school year.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
