Help My 3rd Graders Find a Love of Reading

Help me give my students easy access to books from the same author.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Chinappi's classroom raised $161

This project is fully funded

My Project

My 3rd graders are working hard to enhance their reading skills. Many of them have a goal to read numerous books by the same author. They are looking for similarities and differences in characters and themes. Having these books in our classroom library will allow them easy access to book series at the 3rd grade level.

I have some students who are resistant to reading, and they have shown interest in the books in this project.

I truly hope to be able to add these books to our classroom library.
