My Project

Help give my students a memorable send off as well as prep for my next bunch. It’s no secret that my students love books. They consume them with a hunger that can’t even be described in words. That’s why I would like to send every child in my class home with a beloved children’s book.

For one, it will help combat summer slide.

My children will love reading their chosen book over and over again in eager preparation for next school year. Helping some of students build their confidence in reading.

Your donation will also assist me in helping my students next year, starting off the year to a great start with a personalized mailbox! All their important information sorted just for them.
