This teacher needs your help!

Mrs. Lorenz from Milwaukee, WI is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

We Love to Read!!

My students need 18 age appropriate books, including several from the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Series.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Lorenz's classroom raised $278

This project is fully funded

We are a high need school located in Wisconsin. We are a classroom of middle school special education students with Autism Spectrum Disorders.

My students love to read age appropriate books with CD supports or in graphic novel format. Books without a great deal of visual supports overwhelm the children.

With these graphic novels and cds my students will be able to read age appropriate materials and classics!!! My students will be able to read the same books as their friends!! My students will develop age approprite social skills as they have additional conversation opportunities about age appropriate topics.

You will make it possible for my students to participate in same age opportunities as compared to regular education students.
