This teacher needs your help!

5th Grade Novels

Help me give my students these books to replace old books that are used for engaging novel studies done in my class.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Bounds's classroom raised $627

My Project

Each of these novels that I'm asking for are replacing books that are falling apart. My colleagues and I have been doing these novels studies for over 15 years and occasionally books need to be replaced.

These novel studies fully engage our 5th grade students, and we are able to address all common core standards.

We also ensure that students are exposed to an even mix of fiction and nonfiction texts. We are a Title I school whose students need the exposure to award winning literature like the titles that I'm requesting.
