Empowering Special Education Students with Engaging Books.
Funded Jun 13, 2024We have developed a new, engaging reading comprehension curriculum for our special education English class. As part of this curriculum, we want to bring two incredible books into our classroom: Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. These stories will not only help improve my students' literacy skills but will also ignite their imagination and passion for reading.
Many of our students face unique learning challenges, and traditional teaching methods don't always resonate with them. That's why it's so important for us to create lessons that are both relatable and exciting. Percy Jackson and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory have been chosen for their adventure-filled plots, diverse characters, and underlying themes of resilience, acceptance, and friendship—qualities that resonate deeply with our students.
Your generous donation will allow us to purchase classroom sets of these books, which are key to making this curriculum a success. Every contribution, whether large or small, directly impacts our ability to provide the best educational experience for our students. With your help, we can ensure that each student has the tools they need to thrive and reach their full potential.”
