My Students
I am a teacher in a low-income/high-poverty school district where my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.
I may not be able to control their home lives; however, I can certainly control their experiences during the school day.
From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom, I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hoping to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
My Project
These books will help my students increase literacy and learning at home by providing them with bedtime stories and books to use throughout the day. Reading is an important part of learning and academics and my students do not have access to books in their homes right now.
I am willing to do anything to increase learning while my students are at home.
These books will help increase fluency and comprehension. Repetition of reading will help my students gain the confidence to read on their own. Any donation amount will be greatly appreciated.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
