My Project

My students are starting to love to read to their friends. The problem is that we donʻt have enough of a variety of leveled books to go around. This year I have beginning readers and higher level readers. I have very few beginning reader books both non fiction and fiction. This donorʻs choose mini grant will help be update my library and get these kids to start reading more. They are such a wonderful group of kids, I wanʻt to give them the best because thatʻs what they deserve. Thanks
