Courageous Chapter Books!

Help me give my students new chapter books to read during reading time!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Curtis's classroom raised $474

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help my students get books that they can read during their independent reading time! My students are avid readers and love to snuggle up with a good chapter book. They read all the time! In the hallway! In the gym! On the playground! Keep a book in their hands!

They can't stop reading!

These chapter books will keep my students love of reading and inspire them to find connections with chapter book characters! We want our students to love reading books and they are excited to find different books in our classroom library.
