    Thank you so much for you generous contribution to our class project! I look forward with anticipation to observing the different strategies my students will develop and use for solving problems as they interact with each other while playing these fun and engaging games. I would like to express again how grateful I am to be able to introduce my students to these amazing resources that they would otherwise not have had the opportunity to learn from if not for your support.”

  • Supporting Character Education, One Book at a Time

    Funded Aug 22, 2018

    It is with sincere gratitude on behalf of my students and myself that I would like to express our appreciation of your generous donation to our book project. I am so very thankful that you saw the value of this amazing resource which will benefit each student in our classroom. I am absolutely thrilled that my students will have the opportunity to be exposed to these quality books with their inspiring role models and positive messages and again, can not thank you enough.”

My students come from economically disadvantaged homes whose families do not have the resources available to read to them. These 5 and 6 years old students are so eager to learn and just need to be given the opportunity to benefit from hearing stories read to them. Exposure to reading is important in developing vocabulary for fluency and comprehension! I have a listening center in my classroom but the CD player with its duct taped buttons often stops working mid story. The cords for the headphones are easily tangled and twisted and four of the six only produce static or sound in one of the earphones. Having a listening center with wireless headphones would allow my students mobility and the freedom to learn in areas of the classroom free from distractions. The wireless headphones would also allow students who need a calming break or personal space the flexibility to change spots or even step outside of the classroom in order to refocus and rejoin the group without missing out on learning! I would also be able to provide students this option throughout the day. Imagine the possibilities of using a calming book as a tool to help those who need it without disrupting the learning environment! My students are very inquisitive and energetic and are just as passionate about learning, as I am about teaching them. If a student reads 20 minutes a day, starting in Kindergarten, they will hear 1.8 million words per year! This is their opportunity to achieve that goal. Thank you in advance for your generosity and support of these amazing students!
