Fun Books and a Shelf!

Help me give my students fun books for read aloud, and a bookshelf to store them!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hornberger's classroom raised $199

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am a kindergarten teacher and I believe read alouds are very important. Students sometimes also need to hear lessons while also getting all of the other benefits of listening to a read aloud.

Books help promote literacy and can help teach students lessons in a fun way!

I love doing read alouds and my students love listening to them!

These books all have great meanings and lessons to them and would be a great addition to our library of books! The bookshelf will be a great way of storing the books and keeping them organized.
