Booked for Success

Help me give my students intriguing books to keep their minds engaged in the reading process.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dudek's classroom raised $160

This project is fully funded

My Project

Just as much as I hope to inspire my students, my students inspire me. When I told my students that we were reading Shakespeare this year, one said, "Why can't we read something fun like The Great Gatsby." As I reflected on this, I thought that my students should be able to read what they want to read when they want to read it.

Help my students be booked for success by funding this project of books!

The requested titles are ones my students would be motivated to read.

I would love to offer them the option to read the titles they hear about but never get a chance to read!
