My Students
I teach kindergarten in a diverse urban setting in the Philadelphia School District. I have 30 learners in my classroom, many of whom have never attended Pre K.
I teach at a Title I School where 100 percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.
Many of my students have not been exposed to education previous to entering my classroom. They all come to my classroom eager to learn and it is my job to provide the foundation they need to be lifelong learners. This year we have been focusing on using technology in our classroom to help us across the curriculum.
My Project
These big books will allow me to provide access to high-quality literature during shared reading. These big books are engaging stories that keep students interacting with the text as they gain confidence in reading. The large text makes it easier for all students to see the story and follow along as they track the words with their finger. These stories will spark their interest as they answer questions and build fluency by reading each book weekly. By donating to this project you will be creating a library of big books that students can access in our classroom to help them reach their reading goals!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
