Pink Freud Recommends New Psych Books
Funded Jan 31, 2011Dear Simonelli Family, Elizabeth Pappas, Nathalie Harewood, and Anonymous Donor,
I'm delighted to say that we have reached our goal of having eight more psychology books for my International Baccalaureate classroom. These books are a much-needed addition to our curriculum, as they include updated information written by the leading expert in the world of IB Psychology.
We immediately used these books as a supplement to our program. They arrived in time to give us information on the new unit and areas of focus that have been added to our curriculum. The students used these texts as a valuable aid in reviewing for their IB psychology exam. The students completed the IB psychology tests this week and reported that they felt confident in their essays.
Thanks again for your contribution to the students in my program. I have a delightful group of motivated and service-oriented group of students this year, most of whom are attending prestigious colleges in the fall. The psychology books will also be used by future students in the IB program in the years to come.

With gratitude,

We Need a New Book!
Funded Aug 30, 2010Thank you so much for your generous donations! I requested the new Psychology books from all my site and district sources, but was unable to purchase any due to the current budget crisis. Without your assistance, we would not have been able to obtain these valuable resources. Our Psychology International Baccalaureate curriculum changed significantly this year, and the books your purchased for us are directly written to the new requirements.
The students were excited to check out the new books. One student is especially interested in looking at the section on Extended Essay, that gives insight on writing his 4000-word mandated senior essay.
These new books will be used by this year's and future IB senior classes. You have enriched the curriculum of many great young minds!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Becijos
