Non-fiction Library

Help me give my students supplies that will help them explore the world around them with nonfiction books and magazines.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Powers's classroom raised $745

This project is fully funded

My Project

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them.

The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. The fact based magazines will spark their immagination and interest in the world around them. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
