Dive Into a Good Book!

Help me give my students new books for independent reading time in school.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Thompson's classroom raised $321

This project is fully funded

My Project

These books will continue to enhance my classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
