Exciting Reading Space

Funded Jan 23, 2023

Thank you all so much for your generous donations! I am so fortunate to have received a new reading cart to store a multitude of materials to teach reading. I'd like to share some ways that my new reading cart has been helpful.

When I teach reading to small groups of students, the students come to me on a rotating basis with no time in between groups. Therefore, I need to be extremely prepared for every lesson and have all of my materials at my fingertips. Thanks to you, this new reading cart has made this all possible and has provided smooth transitions between groups. The cart has ample space for essential items such as my binders for taking anecdotal notes, books we are reading for the day, literacy games, and letter tiles and other manipulatives to help students practice building words.

When the students saw the reading cart for the first time they were so excited! They could see the books, games, and manipulatives, making their reading space a visually engaging space! They continue to be so excited to come to the reading room!

I am so thankful for your kindness, and I am honored that you chose to help fund my reading space project. Your dedication to students' learning is appreciated more than you know.”

With gratitude,
