Axolotls, Pets, & Farm Friend Reading

Help me give my students animal fiction featuring Axolotls, Cats, Dogs, & Farm Friends

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stansbury's classroom raised $183

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students love to learn about animals, science, and anything that has to do with pets and farm yard animals. What really gets them excited is Axolotls. Please help my students grow their reading skills with these animal books.

We learn science and practice reading when we read axolotls, pets, and farm animal books.

My students have been asking for Emma Every Day books which feature a deaf character that signs in American Sign Language (ASL). This will add a book about cats and dogs in the Emma Every Day series. We will also be getting 1 Farm Yard Friends book to finish our collection. But what really makes this project exciting are the 3 fiction books featuring the axolotl. My students ask to learn more about axolotls all the time. Let's give them the books they are craving.
