About this Campaign
Hi, we are teachers at Clinton Elementary School in Lincoln, Nebraska. We are a Title I school where 95 percent of our students qualify for free and reduced lunch. Your gift will make it possible for 60 kindergarten students to visit the Lincoln Children's Zoo. Even with the zoo being in our community, many children have not had the opportunity to experience it.
Throughout our literacy curriculum, we explore how baby animals move, how animals are alike and different, where animals live, kinds of bugs along with different jobs and community workers. Our writing curriculum focuses on writing stories from our lives. This experience will provide many opportunities for writing and could certainly be the source for our students' final writing assessment. Each kindergarten classroom has approximately 50% English Language Learner students and this is an excellent opportunity for them to develop and use language.
This money will also help us purchase t-shirts for our Kindergarten classes to wear on our field trip to ensure their safety.
Thank you for your support,
The Kindergarten Team
