It’s been immensely gratifying seeing the joy on the children’s and teacher’s faces as they enjoy the fruits of our book group’s efforts in adopting this adorable kindergarten class at the Ray V. Pottorf Elementary School. The students shouted gleefully as we opened up the activity items our group purchased for them to earn for excellent behavior at the end of each day. We have received pictures of these kindergarteners enjoying life size Jenga and Connect 4. They’re also delighted with their magnetic cars and race mats, as well as with the Bob Book series. The Valentine’s party we hosted was a raving success – although when it was over, we were even more impressed with Ms. Green’s incredible classroom management systems.
It’s not too late to get connected with a classroom that your group can adopt. There has been a fair amount of interest, and we are hopeful that these groups can submit their one-page background applications. and watch a 15-minute video so they, too, can feel the joy of adoption.
Any (self-identified) group interested in this very worthy (and easy) project, please contact me at [email protected] or 610-220-2856.
