The Description
Hello! Thank you for visiting my page. I teach 6th grade english language arts and reading intervention to my wonderful students at Phillis Wheatley Community School. Too many of my students are not able to find books that both interest and challenge them. The best way to strengthen my kids love of reading is to provide them a range of books that can spark passion for learning that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
Your donation will support my classroom library, which in turn will support and foster a love of reading for my students, which will not help them in ELA, but in every other subject in school.
Imagine, for as little as $10, you can help empower our kids to fall in love with literacy and receive the necessary support to excel in life. I know that together we can make this happen! So, for the love of literacy please donate to my campaign. Thank you.
Ps: If you have any questions or comments please feel free to write on my activity wall and I will be sure to get in touch with you!
