My Project

Our ENL classroom consists of multilingual learners from diverse backgrounds and low income households. They can not effort to buy books for themselves. Our classroom does not have any books because it was an empty classroom now in use as an ENL classroom full of enthusiastic and curious learners. I am trying my best but I could only effort to get couple of bins by getting very little donations from some kind hearted people. But the students need diverse genre of books.

By donating to our classroom you will help the students get the tactile and visual literary experience that is their basic need.

They will be able to spend their days in a literary rich environment.

The students are very curious to learn about different things, they need exposure to diverse genre of books. Our text books are also not enough copy to reach every students. They share text books but since they are multilingual learners they hardly understand those text books. In order to help support their learning I am trying to build a magical classroom library with different types of books to feed their learning needs.
