English with Mrs. English!

Help me give my students the gift of books they can relate to.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. English's classroom raised $362

My Project

Many of my students have high hopes, big dreams, and an endless desire to suceed. My love of teaching is because of my students and their relentless persuit to dream BIG.

In our English classroom students will have greater opportunities to read and imagine like never before.

My goal is to provide students with books they can relate to and create a desire and a joy to read. Many of our students don't have opportunites to have a variety of books at their fingertips and I want to make that happen. The everyday lessons that will come from these books will build stamina and provide a LOVE for even more books!
