Reading and Writing Go Hand in Hand!

Help me give my students to learn and have fun over summer break!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. WHITE BURGESS's classroom raised $845

My Project

I am asking for materials for students to use while we are on summer break. Outside of our classroom, rarely will they see and read stories where the characters look like them! I believe that this is essential to their development and identity.

I have also included workbooks and pencils for my students to practice skills that they have learned in the classroom.

Extended breaks are needed for both the teacher and students, but the learning needs to continue!

The fidget toys are for when they may feel overwhelmed or just simply need a distraction from their surroundings.

Thank you all for our continued support!
