My Students

While we continue to teach remotely, we want the kids to still have the resources at home to learn, have fun, and continue to grow. The students in my school are hurting at home and need more resources as more time passes.

While we look ahead at the next few weeks and months, I would like to provide the students with monthly packages for them to look forward to.

This project will give our kids more reading resources at home. We want the kids to have something to look forward to and to know the teachers are always thinking about them. For this project, I am requesting help with getting more books into the homes of the children I work with. We always work on improving our school libraries while we are in school, now is our chance to improve the libraries in the homes of our students. Please help me give more reading resources and early phonics activities to the kids.

My Project

Books, books and more books! My students need to continue to learn to read. The resources I want to send my students will help support early reading and phonics at home! With your help, I can reach every child in my classroom and put a smile on their face.

Help me continue the love of reading that was taking place in our classroom.

Sight Word recognition and a new book at home will encourage the children to continue to look at words and new vocabulary.

Funding for this project will reach many families and every student in my class.
