Bringing Branches to the Shelves

Help me give my students expanded choices in the Scholastic Branches and Scholastic Acorn series.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Werkheiser's classroom raised $246

This project is fully funded

My Project

These books will excite all of the readers who already enjoy Scholastic Branches and Scholastic Acorn books. When readers who haven't seen these books yet, see how colorful and engaging they are, they'll be hooked as well!

When students look for new books, they are usually looking for bright colors and beautiful covers and these offer both of those things!

They also offer the great incentive of being in a series so it's easy for kids to go from book to book without worrying about finding something brand new.

These book series are written for students reading between about 1st and 3rd grade so it is perfect for students who aren't yet ready for more complex storylines.
