My Project

I love teaching literacy. Reading to students establishes such a bond of trust by creating a safe space for love, laughter, and fun!

This project will allow me to create magical story times where students will work on concepts of print, vocabulary, story retelling, and the beauty of hearing a magical story.

Please consider funding my students this year to help me make their kindergarten experience magical. The passion to read will start now and carry with them forever! I appreciate the love and support! Thank you in advance for considering our project!
