My Students

My students are very special. I teach Second grade to an amazing group of kids.

They love learning and growing.

This year they need extra practice more than ever. They are hard workers but they missed out on the end of last year and the time on again off again due to Covid.

I really want them to have a resource at school to use to help them in school.

My students come from all over the world, they speak multiple languages. They come from low socioeconomic families, our school is now 100% free lunch program. Let's get them extra supports!!!!

Thanks for your support!

My Project

Our classroom needs it's own technology. These Kindle Fire's can help work on their own pace when they get a chance to practice. These can help children on their learning paths to both review and to advance their reading and their math skills.

They get so excited to see the personal progress they are making on their individual paths.

Please help support these amazing kids I have this year and all the amazing students I will be lucky enough to teach in the future years.

Thanks for your willingness to support our cause.
