Readers Are Leaders

My Project

Donating new books to our 4th grade English language learners (ELL) class is a powerful way to support these students on their educational journey. For many of our ELL students, learning to read and write in English is a challenging, yet incredibly rewarding process. By providing new, engaging books, you give them the opportunity to expand their vocabulary, improve their reading comprehension, and develop a love for reading. New books, especially those with diverse characters and culturally relevant themes, allow students to see themselves in the stories and feel connected to their learning experience.

Books are more than just words on a page; they are windows to new worlds, ideas, and opportunities.

With your generous donation, you are helping to create a classroom environment where language barriers are broken down, and literacy becomes a tool for empowerment. These books will not only enhance students’ language skills but also build their confidence and curiosity as learners. Your contribution will have a lasting impact, giving students the foundation they need to succeed academically and socially, both in school and beyond. Help us create a brighter future for our young learners—your donation of new books can make all the difference.
