High-Interest Books for Our Classroom!

Help me give my students new, high-interest books for our classroom library and for book clubs.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pombier's classroom raised $1,002

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I teach reading to over 100 5th graders who have not seen a normal school year since they were in the 2nd grade! During that time, many students did not have access to books at home or did not have access to books they are interested in. This project puts high-interest books into my students' hands. They will be added to our classroom library for students to read in class and at home. They will also be used in class for book club groups! During book clubs, students get to read the same book with a group of their peers and discuss it altogether.
