Help me give my students Black History Month books, Women's History Month books, and library updates!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Madden's classroom raised $373

My Project

As kindergarteners, my students are learning to read this year! They love to visit our classroom library to read and look a picture books. Adding these items to my classroom library will help my students learn about Black History and Women's History as well as provide cozy literary characters that students can snuggle with while they read.

A warm and inviting library can really enhance students love for reading and learning!

By adding the reading decorations I hope to make a reading space that is inviting and welcoming to all readers. The new books, reading decorations and stuffed characters will help create life long readers who love books and the whole experience of reading!
