Charlotte's Web for 1st Grade

Help me give my students a memorable book study experience for the end of the school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Paulsell's classroom raised $218

This project is fully funded

My Project

The first graders at my school do a book study at the end of the year. The other first-grade teachers and I are wanting to make this book study special. On the first day of the unit, we want to present Charlotte's Web to the students.

We want to get a copy of Charlotte's Web in each of our students' hands.

After the study, they will have the memory and the book to look back on. They will be able to keep this in their growing libraries and enjoy it for years to come.

This would be such a special gift. We also want to end the unit by watching the movie. This will be a fun celebration to remember.
