Help me give my students books for a classroom library they can enjoy!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Apato's classroom raised $489
This project is fully funded
My Project
These books will be used to help foster a love of reading in my school. My students love to read; however, we do not have a school library. I would love to provide them with a variety of books to experience and enjoy. Students will be able to check out books, take them home, and write reviews for their classmates. I also plan to implement 15 minutes of silent reading in every class.
My hope is that these books will create a classroom culture where students value and enjoy reading.
More than half of students from low‑income households
