My Students

How many of you don't care for reading? As you can imagine, some of my students might feel the same way you do. They would love to have a comfortable place to read and write. Please help them to try out a beanbag chair and writing center to see if that can help them through the year!

My students are very caring, compassionate, happy go lucky kids that could use a little help!

They are from the inner city, but they don't let that stop them from achieving their goals that we set for them through out the year! My student's want nothing more than to make their parents and myself proud of them.

My Project

I would love to have an inviting, comfortable place for my student's to sit and read. The beanbag chair would do just that. I am also asking for a storage unit to keep their writing organized and neat. The writing center would help them with their daily activities and allow them to be creative in the classroom.

The donations that you make to my project, will make such a big difference to my students.

They will be able to get comfortable while reading and writing, and that is such an important part of school now a days. Thanks so much for your donations!
