Lifetime Treasures on to the Next Generation

My students need multiple copies of 8 colorful Dick and Jane Readers.

Big bright eyed, rosy cheeked, first year, boys and girls from a small, rural, East Texas school district looking for adventure.

I work with small groups of six or less students at a time and would like to have individual copies for each student. Resources are very limited for my pullout program and I am looking for different items, to teach/empower these students with, than what is in their regular education classroom. They seem to have a liking for the Dick and Jane books.

The Dick and Jane books that many of us were brought up reading are now back in print and I would like to acquire several of the different books in sets of four and sets of six. Having this many of each will enable the various student to buddy up with a partner and read as well as enable us to work as a large group for addition reading strategies/instruction in these books.

These lifetime treasures were once ours and with your gracious help, we will extend the joy of reading these lifetime treasures onto another generation.
