New Books for 4th Grade!

Help me give my students updated books on topics they LOVE! I have many gifted, thrifted, and loved books, but we need some newer ones that my students will love for YEARS!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Drabik's classroom raised $665

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our classroom library is full of thrifted, gifted, and well-loved books. My students like a few of them, but tend to avoid the more outdated ones. With this project, my classroom library shelves will be filled with books my students love! Most of the titles on this project are ones I see my students check out of our school library. Titles like Dog Man, Wings of Fire, and National Geographic help promote not only independent reading, but also a LOVE for reading! By adding these titles and authors to my classroom library, students will enjoy and love reading!
