My Students

The students that I am lucky to work with every day are truly amazing. They are special needs students that put an incredible amount of effort in to their daily routines. I believe that by giving my students novels to annotate will enhance their reading experience.

Please consider funding this project as you can change the lives of my students.

Not only will providing my students with their own copy of 'The Outsiders' help them to explore a classic novel. But they will be able to highlight and annotate while we are reading.

My Project

My students are excited to start reading 'The Outsiders'. While taking notes and group discussions are effective, I feel that real time highlighting and annotation is best fit for my students' learning styles. My students are literal and visual learners that will greatly benefit by having their own copy to utilize in class, and take home to study and review at night.

Both my students and I appreciate your generous donation, and will utilize our novels daily.

The Outsiders is a classic novel that every student should read, and having a genuine learning experience will enable my students to take these lessons throughout their lifetime.
