Reading Makes Your Brain Smart!

Help me give my students the resources and reading opportunities that will continue to help shape their minds and their futures. The items I have selected are mostly books and classroom supplies needed to inspire educational engagment.

My Students

I am so excited to share some great things about my students. Growing up in a small town has afforded my students a close knit community, giving them great experiences that enhance their personalities and desire to learn.

My students are at the crucial age of building positive habits that will support their success in their future education.

It is imperative that I have the materials needed to help create these habits to ensure their success. Reading is very important to their future.

My Project

Students that are trying to learn and be engaged during this difficult time, are truly struggling. Some of my higher level students are giving up or drowning in this overwhelming situation.

I need fresh books and resources to find a spark in them, to encourage them not to give up.

I keep a classroom library for my students with books they may not otherwise have access to. I encourage them to graze through the titles and find something new. More often then not, they do!

The other supplies are to enhance their hands on learning and interaction with each other. In hopes of lessing the strain of the current situation on them.
