My Students

Inspire children to read! Our kids are struggling to keep up in an ever-changing technologically advanced world. What better way to inspire them to read more than by creating a high-tech classroom library!

I teach 5th grade.

The students are very interested in the newest gadget, game, or technology. Sometimes it's difficult to keep up with all the new stuff! We use a lot of different kinds of technology in the classroom, and the digital readers would be a terrific asset to my classroom library.

My Project

Many of my students love to read, but sometimes our classroom and school library seem limited. Having two digital books would open up a world of literature to my students! The digital books would also be a great tool to encourage my students to read more!

Your donations would provide an awesome teaching tool for my students.

Digital books are a great resource to encourage students to expand how and what they read! The digital readers would place a wide variety of literature right at our fingertips!
