Help me give my students the books they need to successfully conduct research projects at the appropriate reading level.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Caiola's classroom raised $246
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Each year special ed students at our high school do a research paper on animals. Students select an animal of their choosing, and conduct research using databases and books provided by the library. Our current collection has a reading level that is too difficult for these students and lacks the visual interest, and varied topics these students are looking for.
Funds will be used to purchase several series of National Geographic books at varying lexile levels.
Books will cover a wide variety of animals including mammals, birds, fish, and reptiles etc.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
