My Project

I’m looking to provide my preschool students with the best start to their literacy journey. At this stage, it’s all about building a love for books and laying the groundwork for reading skills. With the right materials, we can offer multi-modal learning experiences that make reading fun and engaging while building attention, focus, and academic endurance.

I hope to bring in a collection of instructional books for my preschool students to help them develop strong literacy skills.

These books will offer different ways for kids to interact with stories through pictures, hands-on activities, or simple text. This will allow them to explore and learn in ways that are exciting and accessible. Your support will give them the tools to develop a lifelong love of reading and learning. Thank you for helping make this possible!
