My students need box set of the books Mercy Watson for small group reading during Readers Workshop. Workshop is the heart of our reading instruction; bins will keep our materials organized.
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 Students
Our school is located in a large, urban city. Our teachers and staff provide a safe fun learning environment. There are many experiences for all to have, but many students say within our area. Parents are hardworking, caring, and involved. Our school is Title I, forty percent English Learner, and all kids receive free lunch.
My students are creative and come to school everyday ready to learn.
We are a bilingual English/Spanish class. Kids love readers and writer’s workshop as well as anything to do with math and science. We work on projects through the year that incorporate classroom presentations and parent participation.
My Project
Have you ever read a story with characters you can't get enough of? Do you remember Pipi LongStocking or Ramon the Pest? Well, meet MERCY WATSON. She's a porcine wonder! Kids LOVE these books by Kate Di Camillo. I want to purchase a class set of books to have reading clubs. Students will discuss and negotiate meaning in these funny books.
They will be highly engaged and thrilled to read everyday!
Our book bins will keep these and other books organized so students can find them quickly. Thank you so much for your donation any amount will help make kids lifelong readers!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
