My Project

My students have been reading many books of different genres throughout the school year. Our classroom library is in need of more historical fiction picture and chapter books. I am requesting for more books of this particular genre to add to our classroom library. Many students love to read the "I Survived" chapter books series. I am requesting for more books from this series as well as other books for our classroom library. My students this year and for many years to come would be able to read these books. Thank you in advance for considering my project for funding.
