My Project

I teach reading to students in Elementary School. Learning to read is fundamental in a successful academic career for my students. The ability to read does not happen naturally. Children need regular interaction with pictures, print, sound, and play, to develop the skills necessary to be successful readers.

My students are enthusiastic and hard working.

The materials I am requesting will keep my students engaged by making learning fun. I am requesting Find-A-Spot? Beginning Letter Sounds Game, Alphabet Learning Locks, CVC Word Games, Magnetic Wand and Chips, Snap It Up! Phonics & Reading Card Game, and more to encourage their love of reading.

Reading builds confidence, encourages a child's imagination, and opens doors to endless possibilities. Your donation will help my students succeed and thrive. Thank you.
