My Project

Having enough books for each student to utilize during our novel study time is so important. Having to share books causes several issues, including tracking. It just is not fair that some schools have access to any book that that want in limited quantities due to active PTA, budgets, etc and at our city, title 1 school, we struggle to get what we need.

Also, we would love to have a saucer chair to add to our classroom so students would have a cozy place to sit while completing work on centers.
