AT Kinnan we are doing the Lucy Caulkins Reader`s/ Writer`s workhop. Three years ago,in my Kindergarten classroom,I saw some amazing things happen. A good percentage of my class left for first grade reading!!! There writing was even better,I was so proud of them, we published a book and some Parents were then able to buy them. Our school has invested a lot of money into these two programs. There is still a need for books, lots of leveled books, the children cang take them home and read, then they return. We all really need books!!! The writing program consumes a tremedous amount of paper.At the start of each school year we receive donations from Parents, but about half way through the year we start running really low. Many teachers spend so much money out of their own pockets, as you probably already know. Thank you so much for reading this and I hope my class, as well as, many others get adopted. I am currently am teaching 2nd grade and the achievement gap has increased with my special Education Learners. I feel at a loss of what can help them. I want to research what materials can help these special children. I am starting my Doctoral progam this month and this will be a focus of mine in this endevor.Wendy Hernandez
