I believe all students can love reading. Some just haven't found their true love books yet! I need high interest nonfiction books in my classroom. These are books that students will read during reading workshop. They will practice reading strategies using these books. They will complete research projects using these books. Most importantly they will develop a love of reading while reading these books. I aspire to be a matchmaker who pairs the students with just right nonfiction books that they love to read. Please consider helping me in this endeavor by funding this project. Your donation will allow me to bring high interest nonfiction books into our classroom.
