From Readers to Leaders
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Formica's classroom raised $334
This project is fully funded
My Project
I believe that reading opens minds for little learners and takes them to so many new places where they meet new people and learn new things. My students would benefit greatly from having more books along with their favorite characters. Having a variety of books and plush characters will engage students and promote higher levels of interest.
I believe that a love for reading is a stepping stone to becoming an enthusiastic learner and confident leader in the future.
With confidence and enthusiasm, students can enjoy a world full of learning and exploration. I would use these books and characters to support my curriculum and lessons on a daily basis. I am currently working on building up our classroom library so these books will help promote higher levels of interest in our reading center. Students will have access to these books each day and have the opportunity to choose among vast books, helping to build their knowledge and further develop their imagination.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
