Give Me Books, Give Me the World!

My students need books! We are needing nonfiction and fiction books for our emerging readers. It is important to have phonics books that are interesting to our students!

My Students

Do you remember learning to read? I want my students to leave my class with the knowledge that they are READERS! Not a kid who can read a little, but READERS! I want them to love reading!

My students have gone through an insane year.

They have been through more than any child should. They are a great group of survivors! Our town is coming back in a big way. Help this group of students to come back strong and to come back as GREAT READERS!!!

My Project

We are asking for some books, more nonfiction and fiction. These books will reach every student. I like to send a book home each night with each student. These books and organizer will make that possible, and so much easier! I am hoping this will make my students lifelong readers.

We are a community that has come back strong from a devastation.

I have been proud to be a part of this community where I was born and will continue to live. Help me to give my students the best that I can!
