Let's Get Lit-erature For Our New Little Library
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McGuire's classroom raised $336
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The students at our school are intelligent individuals with many interests. One is reading. Unfortunately, our school does not have a library. It is a proven fact that reading for pleasure builds reading comprehension. It also increases background knowledge, vocabulary, and our understanding of human behavior.
We have recently been blessed with a donation of a little library for our school. I thought this would be an excellent opportunity to get some new books for the students, fill the library and encourage reading for pleasure. This would help all of our upper-grade students.
This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Foundation
and 5 other donors.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
You donate directly to the teacher or project you care about and see where every dollar you give goes.
