My Students

In our high-poverty elementary school, I have 25 bright eyed and energetic first grade students in my class. There are 50 total first graders in the grade! Each of these curious minds come from varying backgrounds and nationalities. Despite the many challenges they face both inside and out of the classroom, they long to be a part of creative and meaningful learning experiences. Some of my students are learning English as their second language and others struggle due to learning disabilities.

I want my students to have the resources they need in order to be successful both inside and out of the classroom.

My class longs to hold new school supplies, but unfortunately many of their families cannot afford it. Nevertheless, the children come to school eager to learn and ready to persist throughout the school year.

My Project

We are requesting TIME FOR KIDS magazine subscriptions to enhance our nonfiction reading and learning experiences both inside and outside of the classroom. With your help, during independent and buddy reading time the children will be able to explore interesting news articles to extend their learning in an engaging and fun way. The children will be motivated to read and want to use the variety of topics that they explore through these articles throughout all subject areas. Additionally, the magazines will help them come up with writing topics and also to increase their reading fluency.

Not only will the children get to enjoy the magazines inside of the classroom, but they will get to take them home to share with their families too!

The children will be able to go home with the magazines and discuss current events and nonfiction topics they have not previously been exposed to with their families! These priceless conversations, valuable learning experiences, and fun cannot be measured. Time for Kids will open a whole new world for all of the first graders in our school!
