My students need lower level independent reading books to fill their book baggies with!

This project is fully funded
My Students
Our classroom is an inclusive one which means some of the students are high performing general education students while others are overcoming various challenges as special education students. Some of these challenges include autism, speech and language impairments and visual impairments.
It's wonderful to see the students in our class all accept each other and learn from one another despite their differences.
Besides their learning differences, our school's population is also very diverse. Located in the heart of Queens, NY we have many immigrant students who have recently moved to America. On the other hand, we also have many students whose parents and grandparents were raised right in Queens and even attended our school!
My Project
Some of our students are reading a few years below grade level. Because of this, we do not have books in our current classroom library that match their reading level. Currently, they have to visit Kindergarten and First grade classrooms o find books on their level. We can only imagine how this is making them feel.
By adding these lower level books to our classroom library, our students will no longer have to leave the classroom and visit other grades to fill their book baggies.
We need to boost their confidence and make them feel included as part of OUR class. These books will do just that!
More than half of students from low‑income households
