Help me give my students books to foster a love of reading and enhance their discussion skills through small group novel studies!

This project is fully funded

My Project

By funding this project, students will be given books that are specifically related to ideas and genres they care about and show them just how influential reading can be. These books will be used to create book clubs where students can learn more about culture, non-fiction incidents of the world, solve mysteries, and travel to magical worlds to learn to become heroes. With these books, students will be able to have classroom discussions about various genres of texts, compare and contrast themes, and analyze different elements of literary formats.

With these books, students will be able to open their minds to understand things about the world and other people they never knew!

These books will enhance reading levels and create a community where real-world learning and connections can be created. Oh, and a love of reading too!
