A Classroom Library

Help me give my students a classroom library full of books from diverse authors.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Brown's classroom raised $273

My Students

My students come from a rural area of northern Wisconsin. In fact, our nearest Target is over two hours away! My students live in the north woods, surrounded by wildlife and lakes. Our school is 2k-12th grade and only has a total of around 150 students.

My students have faced many challenges in the last year.

They are very adaptive to new situations and did a great job with E-Learning.From COVID making school online, to having a new teacher and now having to stay in the same classroom for the full day.

My Project

I unexpectedly am teaching sixth grade self-contained this year! I don't have any middle grade level books in my classroom library. This Donors Choose project would allow my students access to a variety of books.

I'm chosen to get a diverse set of books.

I chose graphic novels, non-fiction texts and chapter books. I'm also made sure to get books written from diverse authors. Our students may not have access to the school library this year so my classroom library will have to have a large enough variety of books for students to enjoy.
