My Project

My small reading groups love a great book. They have been begging me to include more fantasy and science fiction books into the curriculum. Many of the books in our classroom library are either realistic or historical fiction (both great), but as spring rolls around the students are interested in something a little different.

By providing them with fresh books in a little explored genre you will be helping them be even more engaged in reading.

They might even be inspired to start writing more fantasy and science fiction.

Students love exploring these new topics in a safe small group setting and they especially enjoy discussing what they read. These books could help them become life-long readers.

Ms. Rupert will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 8.
