Inspire Life Long Readers
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sonja Johnson's classroom raised $326
This project is fully funded
My Project
Due to recent budget cuts, our school library is often unavailable for students. Over the years, we have built time into our daily lesson plans for independent reading time. I would like to build a classroom library that encourages students to take the time to read on a daily basis. I have purchased several books at garage sales, library sales, etc. and kids are using them as our library is not always open or accessible to them on a regular basis. I teach mostly 9th and 10th grade students who need books that will keep them interested in reading. My hope is that I can continue to inspire them to be life long readers. Please help me to build my classroom library.
