My Project

I would like to provide a relaxing environment full of rotating books to engage my students' minds with reading. With these materials, I hope to expose my students to a variety of different books and help them learn to love reading! I also plan on using these books to teach my students about different holidays, cultures, emotional regulation, life skills, and connections to our academic curriculum.

Because our school is title one, many of my students do not have access to books and reading at home.

I hope these books will help support these students at school. I also think it will provide them with background knowledge that they may not have otherwise. I am so excited for my students to step into the world of reading and learn to love it!

Mrs. Ferrin will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 29.
