Help me give my students graphic novels and other engaging chapter books to help foster a love a reading.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hildebrand's classroom raised $525

My Project

My students are creative, thoughtful and very inquisitive! They love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! My students come to school each day ready to try and learn new things. My students come from a variety of economic backgrounds with over 50% of the students receiving free lunch.

I want my students to read because they want to read a book, not because they have to read.

These graphic novels and other engaging chapter books will help foster a love a reading and would give my students more books that they are interested in and that are on their level.

My third graders go book shopping in our classroom library weekly. They choose these books to read during independent reading time and at home.

Please help foster a love of reading.
