An Amazing Classroom Library

Help me give my students an amazing classroom library to help inspire them

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Hochbaum's classroom raised $303

This project is fully funded

My Project

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy-I read on the carpet to them, they complete work there, and they read independently! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read.

All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind and I have watched them the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading.

My students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.
