FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Romaniello's classroom raised $823

My Project

My students are amazingly strong readers! They love to read and some are now reading on a first grade level. We need level H/I books so that they can continue to have enough leveled independent reading books to learn from throughout the rest of the school year. These books (a mixture of rigby books, non-fiction, amazing stories and early chapter books) will help my students continue to move up their reading levels so that they can enjoy reading and continue learning for the rest of the school year. Thank you for helping!
