FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Van Nostrand's classroom raised $680

My Project

As a K-5 Reading Interventionist, I have higher-grade students who are reading at a lower level, often due to dyslexia. They are excited about learning to read but it is often hard to motivate them with little kid books. They would love to have more appealing decodable books to use in our small group intervention.

Motivation is key to helping these amazing 4th-5th graders to read.

Please help to provide much-needed books and book bins for my struggling readers that are of high interest. This project will help make them successful readers and put them on the path to success.
