"Help us organize our classroom books. I am a second grade teacher who teaches in an urban setting. In my classroom, I do not have many bookshelves to store my classroom library. Most of our books are stored in crates which makes it very difficult for the students to choose a book to read.

My students are becoming very frustrated when it comes to searching for a book to read because they cannot see the titles of the books. They have to take each book out of the crate to see what it is. I try to organize them by topics in the crates, but it is still very difficult and unorganized for them

With your help, a resource book station/shelf will be very useful as it will help my students be able to see the titles of books. They will no longer have to dig through crate after crate to find the perfect book for them.

Reading is such an important concept and my students really need your help so they are not frustrated when it comes to reading. They will be able to find the perfect book without hesitation and we can become more organized. HIDE

My students need a reading resource station. The cost of this proposal is $247, which includes shipping for any materials requested and fulfillment ?."
