My Students

Do you remember when you were a child and your teacher created class books with all your classwork?

My students come from a variety of economic and cultural backgrounds.

They love to write books and "publish" them. They also love to play PE games that involve the use of our school parachute which has fallen apart over the years. They are an enthusiastic group of learners!

My Project

My students need a Bookbinding machine along with the plastic binders in different sizes, a Shakin' The Chute CD and a Rainbow Parachute. This book binding machine will be used for our class to help publish class books and individual written works. Students will be proud of the quality work they will create because their work will be presented and preserved in a creative way. They also love to play PE games and a new Rainbow Parachute will keep them active. They are an enthusiastic group of learners!

Our class needs these materials to help our children realize their daily work is valued and cherished and is part of a larger goal.

These books will allow them to share their learning with their families and friends.
