FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ganer's classroom raised $585

My Project

I am creating a new project to support my students in building lifelong literacy practices. These new books will be added to our existing library, in order to increase the current selection of books we have.

I truly believe that access to literature and various content at any age is critical for continuous development of reading skills.

These books will help support my students build background knowledge, vocabulary, and literacy skills that they will need in order to be successful as they move along with their education. Pandemic has interrupted their learning of basic skills.

Your donations will make a difference that will last a lifetime.
