  • Feel the Need... The Need to Read

    Funded Dec 3, 2017

    Thank you for your generous contributions. The read aloud books and comprehension workbooks are truly assisting my struggling students with their fluency and comprehension skills. These items allow a variety of activities and tasks to participate in with our 120 minute reading block. I see the students are truly interested in the nonfiction text Storms and are really engaged in the reading.

    We truly appreciate your kindness to help us build our love for reading as well as our skills. Thank you so much!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Swindle

  • Get Caught Reading: Building Libraries!

    Funded Aug 25, 2017

    This just a small token of my appreciation for your generous donation to my classroom. The books and cds that you helped my students get are used everyday in the classroom. We use them in our listening center during our guided reading block. The books and cds assist the students on their fluency skills by tracking the words in the book while listening to the speaker read. The listen phones have also helped my students with their fluency when they're practicing skills with me at the kidney table. My students are able to hear themselves read which is building their phonemic awareness.

    Our school is very big on reading and these donations has helped foster a rich literacy environment. My students enjoy these donations greatly and it adds variety to our guided reading centers.

    Without donors like you, thousands of classrooms in the United States would go without!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Swindle

I am requesting items that will encourage my students to practice their listening and speaking. The audio books will assist on fluency, phonics and further enhance comprehension. My students need various was to learn to read in order to encourage their intrinsic motivation to want to read. This project will make a difference by providing various genres of books we currently do not have within the classroom. My students will benefit from adding a different aspect to our literacy center told daily. We truly appreciate any support to encourage daily reading and excitement for reading. Thank you for supporting my classroom
