Biscuit Books in a Bag

Help me give my students a book in a bag to take home each day to read with their family and improve their reading comprehension and decoding.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Pentecost Atkins's classroom raised $215

This project is fully funded

My Project

I would love to provide a class of first grade students with a "book in a bag" to take home throughout the week. These books focus on beginning reading skills. Students will be able to read these books with someone in their family which will build their comprehension and decoding skills as well as give their family members a chance to support their student with the skills they are learning in class.

Your support will help further our students in their reading journey and support them as they work to develop lifelong reading skills.

These books will provide each student in class with a nightly reading opportunity and encourage parental involvement. We would greatly appreciate your support.
