Engaging Classroom Library Needed!

Help me give my students a more engaging and diverse classroom library. This project aims to provide books that reflect students in the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Scroggs's classroom raised $557

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our classroom library has a limited selection of books that interest students. This project aims to address this by increasing the availability of engaging and diverse books that reflect students' interests, perspectives, and the world around them. The book list encompasses a diverse range of genres, reflecting the interests of my students.

Expanding our classroom library will enhance access to high-interest books, encouraging students to continue reading and learning about the world around them.

Throughout the year, my students have become increasingly confident reading independently. The best way to continue this reading growth is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students develop stronger reading skills.
