Future Leaders Are Today’s Readers! Help Today!

Help me give my students a reading book. Future leaders are today’s early readers! I want to bring the joy of reading back in the classroom! I want to drop everything and read with these cozy items.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Maurer's classroom raised $697

This project is fully funded

My Project

My goal within my room is to create a cozy space for my third graders to snuggle up with a book and build a love for reading that will light a fire of curiosity and learning within them. I have been block teaching math and science and want to expand my room now that I will be teaching reading as well to have a lounge area where kids can lay around and really get into a book. Focus on the love of learning and hopefully foster an environment where kids want to come in and learn so that they get more out of school! I am excited to be here with them everyday and I want them to be as well! Please find your inner Junie B. Jones or Ms. Frizzle and help my kids take a ride with their imagination and grow our reading nook!!!

I appreciate all of your love and support.

Sending love and Maurer Power!

Mrs. Maurer E Melvin Honeycutt Elementary School Grades 3-5
