Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

As a dedicated second grade teacher, I am always striving to create engaging and effective learning experiences for my students. Today, I'm reaching out to you with a special request that I believe will greatly enhance our guided reading lessons: guided reading materials.

Guided reading is a crucial component of our curriculum, as it allows me to provide targeted instruction and support to small groups of students based on their individual reading levels and needs.

However, acquiring the necessary materials to make these lessons engaging and interactive can be a challenge.

That's where your generosity comes in. I am requesting donations towards the purchase of guided reading materials such as Toobaloo phones, finger beams, magnifying glasses, witch fingers, reading strips, and more. These tools are not only fun and exciting for students but also serve as valuable aids in developing essential reading skills.

With your support, we can create a dynamic learning environment where every child feels empowered and excited to participate in guided reading activities. Your donation will not only enhance our lessons but will also increase student engagement and comprehension, setting them up for success both academically and personally.

Your support will make a tangible difference in the lives of my students. Together, we can ignite a passion for reading and learning that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for considering supporting our guided reading materials project. Your generosity is deeply appreciated and will have a lasting impact on the success of our students.
