My Project

This is my second year as the reading interventionist. Last year, you all helped so much by giving us books, letter tiles, and so much more. I am so grateful but I still need your help.

We need a rug, flexible seating, and a lamp to make this space an awesome place to learn.

We need your help. All day, I have students who come to my room, and we work on their sounds and building up their confidence. They are working so hard, but we have no place to stretch out and enjoy reading. With your help, this room can be amazing. Please help us. Thank you so much.
