My Students

My students come from low income families. I would like to add my wishlist to motivate them to keep learning and coming to school. There is low attendance at the school and I can see that in my classroom. I want students to enjoy entering my classroom with a drive to learn and have fun.

Having a classroom that students enjoy being in is essential for students to learn.

I want to be there for students without worrying about having enough funds to motivate them to come in. My students are all extremely sweet and kind, but they need a push when it comes to academics. Any help would be very much appreciated!

My Project

I am trying to build our classroom library into one where students feel joy looking at and browsing. These books will revamp our classroom and bring character to the shelves. I want students to feel excited to read and build their knowledge through books. From your contribution, students will have access to mystery books, books about women empowerment, as well as graphic novels. I cannot thank you enough for how much this would mean to me and the students if we were to receive these.

Harry Potter books were my introduction to the world of reading, so I hope one of these books will spark that love in my students.
