Just Right Books

Help me give my students predictable and engaging books they can read independently.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Christina Li's classroom raised $1,328

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students come from various social-economical backgrounds, but they are all excited about learning. They are eager to learn how to read. However, finding the just right books for them is a challenge.

The books in this project will help my students build confidence and enjoy reading.

My students are starting to learn how to read, but my classroom library does not have enough just right books for my students. These just right books have predictable and repetitive sentences on each page, and they have great pictures to support the readers, so they can be independent.

My goal is spark students' love for reading by providing them with books that are just right for them. This will help students become confident and independent readers.
