Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Help me give my students the supplies we need to prepare necessary resources to improve reading through the Science of Reading.

Students need decodable readers, but they must be copied for each student.

My students WANT to learn to read. I am implementing different programs based on the Science of Reading in my classroom. Students will be able to use these books in small groups and can take them home to read at home. To make this possible, we need a supply of paper.

It is also important to have a good supply of pencils and a good sharpener so students can stay on task. These are essential supplies that we need ready and available at all times.
