Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
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.
Hello all, I am a kindergarten teacher in a high poverty area in an urban large city in northern California. My school is rich with diversity and culture. We are in need of many supplies, but today my classroom and I are asking for one fabulous table and four chairs so we can read as a small group.
Our school does not have the extra money to spend on extra supplies for the classroom.
I usually end up paying for most of the extra supplies in my classroom. I cannot afford this item and all the other supplies, so I am asking for your kind help. We do not have a PTA fund with extra money and in California there is a severe budget cut to our schools. We need supplies desperately for this coming school year. This table and chairs will enrich students learning for years to come. I will be able to have them sit on the table and teach small group instruction to struggling readers or advance students with guided reading. They will all be able to sit at the table and chairs and watch and learn in a comfortable fashion. There are no funds to get a small table and chairs, so I am asking for your kind donation for my classroom.
My Project
The resource I need is simple, I need one small table and four chairs, so I may give individual instruction rather than sitting on the floor. I cannot afford to buy such an object for my room, nor can my school. With the outdated classrooms with limited supplies this will be a welcome to my room and the kindergarteners will thanks you too!! Thank you so much for giving your time or donation even if it is 10 dollars. We need altruistic people like you in our schools!
This table and four chairs will enable me to create a center time for a small group of children.
My main focus is guided reading and strategy groups. I pull as many as two groups a day with guided reading. This table is so essential and will help us get off the floor and onto a table. Thank you for your kind help.
