  • Learning Through Play

    Funded Feb 22, 2022

    We cannot thank you enough for supporting our students in their learning! Our students are full of energy and were very eager to use the new literacy and math centers. Our students were able to be provided with centers that allowed for choice and targeted practice to meet all of their needs.

    Using the many math and literacy centers we were able to purchase, with all of your gracious donations, was a great way to help our students gain knowledge and feel more confident in our classroom. Our students were excited to show their skills in the different centers throughout the day.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Pilipczak

  • A Library of Learners

    Funded Dec 24, 2017

    Thank you for donating to our classroom library. Since receiving the books from your generous donations our students are making great gains in reading. During guided reading, we have seen a tremendous amount of movement in the students' independent reading levels. With your donations, we have been able to provide them with high interest books to keep them motivated. Our students are excited about book shopping with all of the different topics now available to them. This would not have been possible without all of your support. Our class thanks you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Pilipczak

We want to spark our children’s interest and enthusiasm about reading. We need books that catch their attention, captivate their imaginations and make them want to keep on reading! By providing our children access to a rich classroom library, we can encourage greater amounts of reading and more diverse reading experiences, which will help them to attain greater levels of reading achievement. Books are the backbone to our teaching. Much of what happens in our classroom is sparked by a great story or non-fiction text. We read to our children multiple times in a regular school day in which they are required to interact with the books through comprehension, writing like the author and for enjoyment. We incorporate diverse trade books into their reading curriculum, introducing them to the wide range of genres, authors, and topics. We are trying to build an adequate collection of fiction and non-fiction books at different levels to accommodate the many interests and abilities of our students. By having an up-to-date classroom library with books for our children learning to read will provide them with access to meaningful and personally interesting topics and stories. A new classroom library that supports our children's daily independent and having the proper reading levels of our students will help us match our students to texts and they will be able to be read with success and therefore our students will grow as readers. Research shows that classroom libraries help students attain reading achievement. We want to provide the best opportunity for our beginning readers!
