Fantasy Books for 6th Graders!

Help me give my students new fantasy books to replace popular series in our classroom library!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Martinson's classroom raised $375

My Project

Having fantasy books in a 6th grade classroom library is crucial as they ignite students’ imaginations and foster a love for reading. These books transport readers to magical worlds, enhancing creativity and critical thinking. They also help students develop empathy by exploring diverse characters and scenarios.

Replacing lost or worn-out fantasy books ensures that students continue to have access to engaging, high-quality literature that supports their academic and personal growth.

Popular titles like the Shadow and Bone series, the first three books of Harry Potter, and Wings of Fire keep the library exciting and relevant.
