Literacy, Books, and Supplies

Help me give my students new books and resources from Teachers Pay Teachers to better grasp reading comprehension. Students also need healthy snacks throughout the school day to allow their brains to get the nourishment needed for learning.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

This year there is a wide gap among readers in my classroom. Students are improving rapidly and soaring as they continue to work hard. I also still have more than half my class learning to read, and still not grasping basic letter sounds. These students are all very hard workers but all at different levels, and often I need to seek extra resources to best address all my student's individual needs.

I do not have a library that is accommodating to early readers as I taught 5th-grade last year.

Much of my library was for students at a 4th and 5th-grade reading level, however this year I only have one student at grade level. I really would love to give books to students of all ranges. Additionally, I would love to give appropriate homework to each child based on their academic needs, but need resources from Teachers Pay Teachers to be able to do so.

This funding will greatly reach all my students. In addition, this project will help fund snacks for my students. My students live at or near the poverty line and do not come to school with basic supplies. I am hoping with this funding I will be able to reach all the needs of my students.
