My Project

My students are fun and energetic with a great thirst for learning! They love learning about any subject or topic in a whole group setting, but they especially enjoy coming to small group at the teacher's table.

Our class is in great need of stools for small group time at the teacher's table.

Unfortunately a few of our current stools have broken after being well used. We can use chairs instead, but stools make the teacher's table special and fun. Please help us replace our stools and keep small group time exciting.

We are also in need of nonfiction emergent books. Many of my students are just learning to read and need books they can read on their own. This gives them a sense of accomplishment and encourages them to keep reading, which in turn helps them grow as readers. We can hardly wait to get our project funded!
