My Project

Our classroom is a place where students come to learn, grow, and be inspired. One of the most magical moments in our day is when we gather together for a read-aloud session. However, our collection of read-aloud books is limited, and we are seeking to expand it to offer our students a wider variety of stories and experiences. With your support, we aim to acquire a diverse selection of engaging and captivating read-aloud books that will spark the imaginations of our students and foster a love for reading. These books will not only enhance our read-aloud sessions but will also provide students with opportunities to explore different genres, cultures, and perspectives.
