My Project

The books I have chosen are to finish off series I already have that my kids are wanting to finish reading. They cannot wait for them to hopefully get funded and put in my library. They are very into reading the Who Am I or What is the? books so I am trying to get more in our library! I also am requesting snacks because kids are so hungry all day long and some kids just do not have food at home so I want to be able to offer them some kind of snack. A full or almost full belly learns much better than an empty one! We as teachers need to do all we can to help in every way!
