My Students

"I did it! I CAN read!" This comment is what I work towards all year with my Kindergarteners. It is hard to inspire them to start reading when we lack some of the resources that are necessary.

I am currently teaching Kindergarten to 19 children that are excited about learning.

They are very sweet and have a strong desire to learn. I come from a low socio-economic school that lacks support from some of the parents. When some of my students entered Kindergarten, they had never been to preschool and some had never been in an environment with children other than their siblings. Most of my students did not know any letters or numbers, could not write their name, and had never used glue or scissors. It is very important for Kindergarteners to have hands-on materials to enrich their learning experience. Their attention spans are not meant to sit on a rug and listen to a lecture. The best way for Kindergarteners to learn is to have interaction with their subject and get involved. The children get so excited and are ready to learn when they have opportunities for hands-on activities."

My Project

I am asking for six different resources. These sources include a word pattern learning center, beginning blends and digraph center, middle sound center, rhyming center, a picture-word match, and newsprint paper. If the children had these learning centers, they would have so much fun learning phonics. The children would get excited about learning and would aspire to do better. I have found that when the students get excited about learning, they learn even more. These resources would be a wonderful edition and would be used everyday. The skill levels range, so it would benefit every student, from my lowest to highest. It would be a “dream come true” for my students to have the opportunity to use these valuable resources.

If you help our classroom, you will be changing the life of 19 wonderful children and countless others in the future.

Kindergarten is a vital year. This is the year that a child’s educational foundation is set for their entire academic future. You could truly make a difference and help these children build a strong foundation that leads them to success in the future. Please open your heart up to these children, so they can learn how to read. That is a gift that will stay with them forever!
