Books for Our Growing Readers

Help me give my students an organized classroom library that offers a variety of reading material.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. D's classroom raised $604

This project is fully funded

My Project

The resources I am requesting are going to directly impact my students' learning. The new (higher level) books for our classroom library will allow my students to access high-interest texts at their individual levels. A lot of my students have progressed from “learning to read” to “reading to learn” this school year, and this is the first year since the pandemic that these students are able to read independently. Their love for reading continues to grow as they deepen their reading skills.

The storage carts will help us keep our books organized by reading level, so that my students can quickly and independently access books that are on their level.

The plastic storage cases will allow our students to safely transport their books to and from school, and keep the books in great condition so that they can be enjoyed for years to come.
