Funded Dec 30, 2010I am so grateful for your donations and my students are just plain excited! When I received the books in the mail, I waited and opened the brown cardboard box in front of them. I told them that the box was for our classroom and wondered what could be inside. As soon as I took out the first book, screams filled the classroom. As the books kept coming out of the box, their screaming and laughter kept coming, too. It's fun to be a little dramatic with first graders.
My students have access to these Elephant and Piggie books everyday when we have have free choice reading. These books are always the first to go. They sit on the carpet and read to themselves or to a friend. I think the best part of these books is that I hear them laughing while they are reading. I wish we could upload video!
Thank you again for helping my students love to read!”
With gratitude,
Ms. T.
