This teacher needs your help!

Mrs. Hickey from Denver, CO is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

New Books for Multilingual Learners!

Help me give my students books in their native language to fuel their love of reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hickey's classroom raised $592

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am adding Spanish books for our classroom libraries for our multilingual learners to have books in their native language that excite their reading and enhance their enjoyment of diving into a great book! Our learners come from a wide variety of cultures and backgrounds and are at varying stages of acquiring English, and these books will help them have a familiar language in the midst of many new and unfamiliar elements of a school setting. These trade books are exciting and fun to read, and the non-fiction selections will help them learn about elements of United States History.
