• Much Needed Basics for Our Littles

  Funded Jul 12, 2022

  Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity in support of my students and our classroom.

  We have used the new resources as soon as they had arrived. We were able to put up the cloud wall covering in our chill zone, use the walking rope upon arrival, and the tissues were a hit as we have littles with quite a few sneezes and allergies during the first few days of school. The hand sanitizer has been a much needed item, as we (myself and my Paras) carry them on our lanyard via a sanitizer holder. We use these throughout the day with dirty hands, to keep germs at away and to keep the students safe.”

• More Books! We Need Books for Language Development

  Funded Jun 21, 2022

  The books have arrived and our first day of school has come to an end. The excitement and joy that these books brought to my students to day was priceless. They really loved the new books, the shininess of the gloss of the covers and pages was of great appeal to my littles.

  Students have the opportunity to browse our classroom library and choose a book to be read to by staff. We do daily read alouds, where students get to choose a book that the whole class will participate in. These books will be used throughout the years for many students.”

• Vocabulary Building with Board Books

  Funded May 22, 2022

  The Books have arrived with 1 more day before the start of our 2022-2023 School year. I look forward to the excitement that these books will bring to my students and the growth of their language development as well.

  Reading in our classroom is done in 2 ways, 1 via small and whole group instruction by one of my staff members or I. We can read to them and prompt them to answering key details to the readings. 2, We do reading with a buddy, where my students can pick a book and a stuffed animal to read with and to. This allows their imagination to flourish and to foster their growing reading skills.”
