Reading is my passion. It is something that, from the first page of Mercy Watson on the first day of school, I share with my students. I want students to be able to enjoy great stories at home as well as in school. By donating to my project, you will give students the opportunity to engage in high quality literature like the amazing and hilarious adventures of Mercy Watson. They will learn to navigate friendship and communication skills with the characters of Mo Willems. By donating to our project, you will be giving my first graders the opportunity to share high quality literature with their friends in school as well as their parents at home. Please consider donating to our project. Your gift will help to ensure that my first graders have the opportunity to engage in literature even after the school day ends.
