My Project

I am writing to you today to share my passion for education and to seek your support for an exciting project. As a dedicated teacher starting a new school reading intervention program, I am thrilled to be spearheading a reading intervention program that aims to empower our students and enhance their literacy skills.

With the launch of this program, I envision a classroom where every student can flourish as a confident reader.

However, to make this vision a reality, I am in need of essential items that will significantly impact our learning environment. These materials include materials needed to successfully implement the training I completed through IMSE. It is a morphology approach and based on Orton Gillingham. These interactive aids are tailored to meet the diverse needs of our students.

By contributing to our DonorsChoose campaign, you will directly contribute to the educational growth and development of our students. Together, we can create an inclusive and dynamic classroom environment where each child can thrive, building a strong foundation for their academic journey and future success.

Your generous support will not only provide these valuable resources but also inspire a love for reading, boost comprehension, and foster a lifelong passion for learning. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference in the lives of our students and their educational trajectory.

I invite you to join us in this rewarding endeavor and be part of the transformative impact our reading intervention program will have on these young minds. Together, let's empower our students to become confident readers, critical thinkers, and lifelong learners.

Thank you for considering our campaign, and I am truly grateful for any support you can provide.
