Help me give my students new chapter books for beginning readers - Fancy Nancy and Henry and Mudge.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kassab's classroom raised $282

My Students

My students are creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!

My Project

My students are starting to read chapter books and I love these two series for beginning readers. I've been going to the local library for years to pull these books for my classroom, but due to Covid this is not possible. If I had the books as part of my classroom library they could experience Fancy Nancy and Henry and Mudge without the help of our local library. This would be so exciting for my students and they could stay in our library for use every year. I dress up like Fancy Nancy to get them revved up. This usually happens in March and I was hoping to get this project funded before "Fancy Nancy Day."
