Always Room for More Books

Help me give my students a variety of chapter books to add to our classroom library.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Salcedo's classroom raised $480

My Project

Our classroom library used to be sorted by reading level. We recently decided to sort it by genre. This gives students a more diversity in books that they are able to read. Students cannot improve their reading skills if they are constantly reading at the same level. As a result, my students have begun reading more books about different subjects.

You can never have too many books in your library and students like a variety of titles.

This is why I am asking for more sets of books for my students to read. They all have different themes they like to read about and so I need many different titles to meet their varied interests.
