Help Mrs. C.

I am a K-1 looping teacher of 20 PHENOMENAL students. I teach at an early childhood center with a large ESL population and approximately 75% of our school qualifies for reduced price lunch.

One of the obstacles to reading that many ESL students face is vocabulary acquisition. They come to school unfamiliar with many common everyday objects. It has been shown that to build vocabulary skills particularly in ESL students, will result in building better readers. I would love to start the new year with great new hands-on vocabulary activities that will help my kids develop their vocabulary skills.

My kids will surely benefit from these wonderful vocabulary activities from Lakeshore. A vocabulary classification center will not only develop vocabulary but classification skills as well. A sort and match vocabulary activity will help my kids recognize and name everyday words. All these activities will ultimately boost their vocabulary as well as their confidence as ESL learners.

Your donation will make it possible for my kindergarten class particularly my ESL students to expand their vocabulary and become strong and enthusiastic readers.
