Encyclopedias are Fantastic for the Brain

Help me give my students fun encyclopedias to fuel their brains every day.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Robinson's classroom raised $195

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Encyclopedias are a great way to fill the brain with new and fun information. Our library is in need of some new encyclopedias. These new encyclopedias are focused on certain subjects like dinosaurs and physics that the students have been asking for.

Encyclopedias are filled with a lot of fun facts.

Students can then take these facts and turn them into a conversation, or they may just learn something new and amazing. These encyclopedias help students to understand things around them as well as fuel their brains with knowledge.

By obtaining encyclopedias it is my hope that the students will utilize them in many different ways. Perhaps for research or to just further their knowledge in a subject, or even for fun.
