My Project

My goal is to fill my classroom library with books that students are interested in. Students are allowed to take home these books to encourage them to read at home in addition to reading at school. I like to have a variety of books for the kids, so they can find the books that are interesting to them.

When students find books that are interesting to them, they start learning the joy of reading!

The series I have added to this list are books my students have asked for. I already have the first two books of the Amulet series, and a few of the kids wish I had the complete series in my room. The 39 Clues Series is a series I often see kids take from the school library, but they read them out of order since kids from other classes are also checking them out.

My students and I would be grateful to have these books added to my classroom library.

Mrs. Mettler will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 17.
