Inspiring Readers for Life!

Help me give my students books to read that go along with the reading units we are learning with our new reading curriculum!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bauguss's classroom raised $500

This project is fully funded

My Project

The books and storage bins will help give my students more reading options throughout the year and keep us organized. The books I have selected are extensions of the books and reading units we are learning about with our new reading curriculum.

My students have a love of learning and want to continue reading about the topics we are learning in class.

These books will help them do just that! This project will help give us more books to read on the topics students are already interested in so that their learning can continue and grow.
