My Project

Help put books into the hands of my littles. My littles are just learning to read. I would like to send home a book and a buddy each week. Many of my students are from low-income families. They do not have a large variety of books at home. Some of my ESOL kids do not have any books. I can see how snuggling up with a book buddy will encourage them to read. I am excited to see their reaction when they get to take a book and stuffed animal home.

Grades PreK-2
