My Project

My kindergarten students are magical! They are loving, joyful, inquisitive, and excited to learn. Being with them each day makes me a better human being and gives me great hope for the future.

With this project, I would like to bring more representation of all the beautiful people in our world into our classroom read-aloud books, to not only build an appreciation for and understanding of everyone that makes up this planet we all live on but to also make sure each student I encounter over the years gets to see themselves represented in the books I read to them.

Your contribution towards this project will help all my students, current and future, be inspired by the beauty joy, and power they see and hear from the pages of these books. Thank you!
