Love for Reading Starts with a Good Book!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McCurdy's classroom raised $215
This project is fully funded
My Project
I will be moving from first grade to third grade next year and am in desperate need of some chapter books for my new class! I have been teaching first grade for 10 years, so I am well stocked with fantastic picture books but am greatly lacking in chapter books.
I have a great love for reading and would love to instill this same love for my students. My love for reading came when my teachers empowered me to choose books that piqued my interested. Through donating to my project, you are helping me accomplish that too. I have selected a variety of books that provide adventure, mystery, and so much more. Please help bring the joy of reading to my third grade classroom!
