My Students
William Butler Yates once said, "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." Each day my students come to school from a variety of difficult home lives to have this educational fire lit inside of them. My students attend a Title I school in South Carolina that enrolls students with a wide range of ability levels, different socioeconomic backgrounds, and many even have difficult home lives.
For the most part, the world of my students is a simple one that lacks resources and opportunities for learning.
Even something as simple as having reliable resources can make a difference in their lives. I believe in providing my students with the highest quality education I can offer them and hope that my efforts will truly benefit these students.
My school is an Arts in Basic Curriculum school, which means we focus on the integration of music, visual, and performing arts with our everyday lessons. For students who do not come from much, this integration is a way to provide them experiences and opportunities in which many of them may never get otherwise.
My Project
In third grade, we work hard at fostering a love of reading for our students each and every day. I have recently introduced my students to the Magic Tree House series by Mary Pope Osborne. I have seen so much joy when they show me they are reading "another one." Unfortunately, my classroom library doesn't have any more of the books in the series.
I would like a set of Magic Tree House books, and bookmarks, for my classroom library to help continue the fire they have for reading chapter books.
My students have been so excited about this series that I would hate for it to stop because I don't have any more books. Please consider donating to my project so I can have more of these books for them to read.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
