Amazing New Classroom Library

Help me give my students an amazing classroom library! Looking to capture the imagination of my students and build lovers of reading.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Martindelcampo's classroom raised $674

My Project

I have been teaching 3rd-grade for 11 years at a Title I school. Next year, we need a 6th-grade teacher, so I stepped up to take the challenge. The one thing I am very sad about is my classroom library. It took me many years to build my 3rd-grade library, and I can only take about half of those books with me.

In 6th grade, I will be teaching ELA and Social Studies.

I want my students to have that love for reading. For me to do that, I need books such as Nathan Hale’s Hazardous Tales Series, Alan Gratz Book Series Set, and the Front Desk Series 3 Books Collection Set by Kelly Yang, to grab their attention and that they enjoy them.
