This teacher needs your help!

Give My Sixth Graders' Imaginations Wings!

My students need multiple copies of 8 fantasy books in order to work in book clubs.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cavanaugh's classroom raised $167

This project is fully funded

When you give the gift of books to our classroom, you enable a child's imagination to take a trip it will never forget. I teach 60 sixth grade students. We are located in a high need area. Many of my students have out grown our library!

My students have really shown an interest in the fantasy genre, especially in the classics. I would love to have the opportunity to get these books in their hands and let their minds go on a real adventure.

If I could get the multiple copies of the classic fantasy books for my kids they could get back into the genre they love. The more they read the better off they are. I don't want to lose this love of reading momentum. Please help us.

With your help the love of reading will last forever in my students' hearts and minds. Thank you for making a difference.
