Book Shopping by Genres!

Help me give my students a library organized by genres so they can find the types of stories they most enjoy reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Johns, District Elementary Library Specialist's classroom raised $1,052

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

In our library we want students to choose books based off of their interests. When classes come to the library they only have a short time to find a book to check out and often students have a hard time finding the types of books they want.

Help us organize our library by genres so that our students can more easily find the types of books they want to read.

If students find books that match their interests, they are more likely to build reading engagement and become life long readers. This is a big project, but we know it will make a big impact for our students. Please help us make this library project happen for our amazing school community!
