High-Interest Books for Emerging Readers

Help me give my students high interest fiction and nonfiction books for emerging readers!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Katherine's classroom raised $484

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students LOVE to read. Independent daily reading (IDR) is one of our favorite parts of the day. I love to provide my scholars with books that are not only engaging to them but are also on their level. So many books for emerging readers can be less interesting as kids get older, but I want to make sure that every scholar has a book in their hands that they can read AND they want to read.

These Lego, National Geographic, and Babysitters Club books will help my students explore their interests and cultivate their identity as a reader.

IDR is such an important part of our day. These books will help the time be meaningful and beneficial to every student in our class.
