Many of my students lost all of their possessions in Hurricane Harvey. These possessions include any and all books they had for at home reading. Research shows that reading at home, even twenty minutes a day, increases success in school across all subject areas exponentially. In order for my students to experience this success I have to get these valuable books into their ready and willing hands. This project will give me a large cache of books to give to them to keep at their house. These books will be for them to use throughout the school year at their leisure.
