My Project

I teach amazing second graders in a Title I school in a low-income neighborhood where their first language is not English. Most of the children live with their grandparents who can’t help them because they do not speak English.

Children in third grade love to read and the more they read the better they will get at it.

Some children might have books at home that they have read so many times they are bored with them. Some children may not have books at home at all because their parents can’t afford them.

These school-to-home organizers will allow the children to take home books from the classroom and enter a new exciting world of literacy.

They will have books they can share with their families at home. These will also give them a safe place to keep the books they will be using at home as well as in the classroom.
