  • Help Fill Our Independent Book Buckets With Books!

    Funded Jan 1, 2024

    My class is thrilled with all the new books . The brand new easy readers offer books that some students can read independently in class. They were so very excited to pick up a book and read. They were especially excited to take the books and find a cozy spot to read.

The books also serve as a way to calm down and relax while enjoying a book.

My Transitional Kindergarten students bring energy and joy to our classroom daily. They enter the room bouncing and skipping ready to embrace the day. They are bright and curious and look forward to each new classroom experience. Knowledge and technology are essential in today’s learning environment. My students come from economically disadvantaged homes and are English Learners that do not have the opportunity to use technology at home. I want to bring them rich technology experiences and tap into their insatiable appetite and natural curiosity to learn. Osmo’s Innovative Technology and the iPad Minis multiple uses would provide access to collaborative and innovative hands-on and heads on learning for the youngest learners in an exciting and motivating way while opening doors to the magic of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
