My students need books in their native language for use in our literacy center. These books would also be shared with their families at home to read together.
Many of my students are new to this country. They are acquiring the English language but in order to promote literacy my families need to enjoy books in their native language which is Spanish. I want to celebrate their background. We have over 80 children who are English language learners and could benefit from your generous donation. All parents want to see their child succeed. I want to build that bridge.
My Project
These donated books would be highly cherished. Many of my students lack the resources to have Spanish children’s books here in my home state of Arkansas. My students struggle with literacy as they acquire a second language. It is challenging to find books and materials that represent my whole class. I want my students to be reading indecently with confidence and joy: We work hard to fill the gaps and will continue to do so. The families I serve would be so blessed to have more ways to connect with their child and their school. I want to help make them feel more at home as they watch their child flourish in this foreign land.
