Help me give my students a library that features diverse, grade-appropriate literary and informational texts. These texts will expose students to a variety of perspectives and deepen their knowledge of fascinating topics.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Danna's classroom raised $423

My Project
After 15 years as a 6-12 school, we are opening the doors of our elementary school this fall! We are so excited to welcome the little ones into our classrooms. This project will allow them to connect with topics and cultures around the world. I believe that bringing all of these things into the classroom at the 1st grade level, will allow for experiential learning as well as allowing an inclusive space filled with diversity, representation and celebration of all backgrounds.
This project will help bring the world to my students and aid in the lessons that will accompany each of these books!
These books will be just one part of building the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. Thank you so much for helping to bring this to life for my students.
More than half of students from low‑income households
