It All Starts with a Good Book!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hudson's classroom raised $217
This project is fully funded
My Project
My fifth grade emergent readers need to have books at their level so they can continue to develop their reading skills. I plan to use the books funded by this project for my classroom library.
Through independent reading, students build confidence when they have the opportunities to read at their level.
With this project, I will be able to provide just that--an opportunity to build confident readers. These amazing novels would allow me to provide my students with books of all different interest levels, as well as all different reading levels.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
