My students need dictionaries that are suitable for their reading levels, markers, and nonfiction comprehension activities to enhance their learning.

My Students
Having a nonfiction reading comprehension learning center that would further expand their learning would be wonderful!
My students attend a New York City public elementary school.
It is a large school in an ethnically diverse community. Their families come from many different countries. The parents are very supportive of the students. Many parents volunteer their time to help out in school. I encourage my students to have their parents come into class and in a semi-formal presentation describe their work, what they do each day, why it is important to the community and the economy. I view these sessions as very motivating. The students enthusiastically ask questions and love to follow up by reading books about the professions they have heard described. They are enthusiastic learners who love new and challenging activities.
My Project
The non-fiction materials that you donate will compliment the lessons that I teach. The non-fiction comprehension materials will support differentiated instruction allowing me to address the different skill levels that are typical of a second grade class. The dictionaries will be useful to improve the children's vocabulary and to teach them fundamental research skills.
This project will have an immense impact.
My children are at the start of their education. By boosting their knowledge and interests so early in their school development it will amplify their performance for the remainder of their educational years.
