My Project

Second Graders are starting to foster an immense love of reading. Some of my students are sparking as young, fluent readers who dream of having access to numerous books to read and explore as a group.

Having access to books will allow my class to continue to strengthen their reading fluency, comprehension, and love for reading.

We meet in book clubs daily, but as a teacher, I struggle to find and supply the multiple copies of books needed to keep book clubs up and running.

These books are part of a series my students fell in love with. They have loved reading, discussing, and sharing this series. Please help build this series and support our book clubs to foster our growth in reading!
