Mrs. Demoret from Oark AR is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

We Need Dictionaries!

My students need dictionaries. We truly need the Merriam-Webster Elementary Dictionaries. In the 2nd grade standards, they are supposed to learn how to use a dictionary. I plan to use these dictionaries for years to come.

My Students

I teach in a Title I school that works with less than 200 students in K-12. At least 60% have free or reduced lunch.

My students are the kindest bunch around because they make do with what they have and keep trekking!

I'm so proud to be their teacher and continue to help them further their education. I'm so proud of them and the growth we made! Please help me continue to help my students succeed this year! Thank you!

My Project

We are in desperate need of dictionaries for our classroom. The money in the budget just isn't there and my students are struggling with vocabulary. I am wanting to hit the standard with these kids but we all need the same dictionaries. Please help us make this happen!

We are a small Title 1 school and we need your help.

Please and thank you for any/all donations! My students have been asking when we will cover dictionary skills. They're ready but we do not have the materials we need to make this happen! Please help Ms. Warren's 2nd Grade!! Thank you!
