Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

This is my second year teaching, so I do not have a lot of resources for my 16 kindergartners who are so eager to read! I would like for my kids to be able to read at home with books on their level. They would take home a book, read it with their parents, and discuss it. Then, they would bring it back to class, read it with me, and I would give them a new book to take home. Most of the books that I have purchased for taking home are too hard for these emerging readers, and books appropriate for their young minds would give the children the opportunity to be successful in their reading. The kids that I teach do not have a lot of opportunities to read with their parents at home because they do not own many books. Imagine a child getting to finally sit down with their parent and read at night, and with the book on their level, the child will actually get to read to their parent!!! Children who read at home every day are more likely to become lifelong readers, so funding this project would significantly impact the future education of 16 kindergartners. I would deeply appreciate the chance to make this happen for these children.
