Help Kids Find Books!
Funded Mar 24, 2005
Thank you so much for funding my proposal! I know that the children in my school will benefit so much from having a library that they can easily navigate. The ease in which they choose their books will most likely translate into a love for reading. Thank you again so much”
With gratitude,
Ms. Tennenbaum

I am a teacher amazing children in the Oakwood section of Staten Island, New York. I work in a lovely neighborhood school in a neighborhood that is rapidly changing. We are now housing many more immigrant families (Chinese, Russian, Polish, Arabic, among many others) along with our working class New York families that have lived there for years. Many of our students only speak their home language until they enter Kindergarten meaning that they may come to school with limited English speaking and comprehension abilities. These children sometimes find it difficult to interact with teachers as well as their peers.
