My Students

My first graders are fantastic! They have a zest for learning, enjoy hands on activities, and are curious.

My first graders like a variety in the books they read, a wealth of hands on activities that create curiosity, and games they enjoy playing.

Plus, they have lots of energy and need short bursts of intense and focused learning. In first grade, there is scaffolded instruction with lots of practice!

They are small, but mighty in their kindness and abilities. These first graders are ready to learn and explore the world!

My Project

My first graders are a curious and creative bunch of students who love to learn. They need a variety of books to help they grow and meet their potential. Creating a classroom library that meets all students needs is essential and not only expands their reading abilities, but challenges them to grow as a person. We are requesting sets of non-fiction books.

First graders love to explore the world around them, so having a great set of nonfiction books will allow them to broaden their horizons, grow their vocabulary, and strengthen their reading interests!

These books will help change the way they see the world! Please support!
